RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile, two furlongs about 70 yards handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 86 to 105. To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have run at least three times in a Flat race in Britain, or have run in no more than two Flat races run in Britain and won at least one of them. This rating then dictates the weight to be carried in a handicap. In simple terms a horse rated 105 in this particular race would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 100.

PLAY SMARTER RESTORER boasts an excellent course record and clearly goes well fresh, so he looks to have plenty in his favour. Alternative Fact wasn’t seen to best effect in a pair of hot handicaps on his final starts in 2020, so is not taken lightly on this return to action, while Lawn Ranger is another to consider with his reappearance under his belt.
