Hilton Handicap

THE #CLEANSTAY AT HAMPTON BY HILTON HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 4)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a six furlong handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 61 to 80. Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb.
