Star Ratings Explained

Each horse is given a star rating, these are deﬁned below: HHHHH Selected to win the race HHHHI Good chance of being placed HHHII By no means without a chance

HHIII At least one or two hold stronger claims HIIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope IIIII 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-handicaps 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.

You must be 18 or over to place a bet You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet If you cannot produce this, your bet will not be accepted

RACE SUMMARY If able to pick up where she left off when winning at Lingfield in November, VALENTINKA may well be capable of defying a 6lb rise here with this drop back in trip unlikely to pose a problem. Hold Fast followed last month’s Kempton success with a near-miss at the same course 11 days later and she is feared most. Light Lily is also shortlisted and an on-song Come On Girl would be a threat, too. 1-2-3: 1.VALENTINKA 2.HOLD FAST (IRE) 3.LIGHT LILY KEY colours

Plenty are in with a shout. SWEET BERTIE can boast a course win and signalled he’s ready to go in again when runner-up at Lingfield so gets the nod off the same mark here.

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): D Loughnane (59 wins from 498 runners, 12%) runs RICHARD R H B TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): R Menzies (6 wins from 23 runners, 26%) runs THREE PLATOON LONGEST TRAVELLER: PEARL WARRIOR trained by I Jardine, Carrutherstown, 205 miles. RACE SUMMARY

FITWOOD STAR was below par here when last seen in January, but the 6-y-o otherwise makes plenty of appeal. Indeed, he’s 3-5 at this course and 4-5 in handicaps, and this step up in trip is unlikely to be an issue. Three Platoon opened his account over 1 3/4m here in December and has done little wrong in his two subsequent starts. He is second choice ahead of Progressive and Inn The Bull. 1-2-3: 1.FITWOOD STAR 2.THREE PLATOON 3.PROGRESSIVE KEY colours
