David Roberts Managing Director Tim Radford Estates Manager Anthony Gledhill General Manager Fergus Cameron Clerk of the Course Marie O’Rourke Operations & Safety Manager Jacqui Pennman Owners & TrainersThe 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

RACE SUMMARY RACE)
Having shaped up well from a wide draw on debut at Chelmsford, APPOINTED ONE looked unsuited by the drop to the minimum trip back at that venue 12 days ago Back up at 6f with cheekpieces enlisted, he still has more to offer and he gets the nod. Both New Definition and Paddy’s Day have plenty of experience and can also figure, with Spartan Arrow, who shaped up well on his debut, also in the reckoning

RACE SUMMARY
AMARILLO GOLD ran well to hit the frame both starts here either side of his Brighton victory in August and, with a lesser effort on softer ground at Chepstow probably best forgiven, he could well be up to bouncing back.
