Hamilton Park Handicap Stakes
THE STAY AT HAMPTON BY HILTON HAMILTON PARK HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 6)
RACE DESCRIPTION
This is a one mile, one furlong about 35 yards handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 55. Like most handicaps on the Flat this race is also open to horses that are rated below that particular band. However, all handicaps stipulate a minimum weight and no runner can carry less than that, irrespective of how low their rating is. This is often described as ‘running from out of the handicap’ and is considered a disadvantage.
