STAR RATINGS EXPLAINED
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
ëëëëë Selected to win the race
ëëëëê Good chance of being placed
ëëëêê By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims.
ëëêêê Unlikely to win but not totally without hope
ëêêêê Can be given little or no chance
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions
A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances) The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non handicap races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating. For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating. Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

Please do not assume the worst if screens are erected around a horse We are fully committed to minimizing risk in our sport, to dealing professionally and efficiently with any injury, and to maintaining the highest possible quality of care for the horses and jockeys racing here today.

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): O Murphy (49 wins from 216 runners, 23%) runs RAMBO T TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): O Greenall & J Guerriero (6 wins from 32 runners, 19%) runs JAGWAR LONGEST TRAVELLER: THEATRE MAN trained by R Bandey, Kingsclere, 135 miles.
A very interesting novice handicap. JAGWAR won a competitive race with something to spare at Bangor last month and can defy the handicapper again and stretch his unbeaten chase record to 3. Rambo T is another who has taken well to the larger obstacles and is feared most ahead of Jingko Blue, who had an excuse when pulled up in a Grade 1 novice hurdle in the spring but remains a good prospect for chasing.

NOT LONG LEFT starts life over fences with the excellent Venetia Williams team on a potentially handy mark so is worth siding with to defy a long absence. Broomfield Present fluffed his lines when last seen out at Exeter but is another weighted to have a say if breathing surgery has had a beneficial effect. Sound And Fury and Sporting Ace both enter the reckoning too in this intriguing handicap.
