ONE MILE about THREE FURLONGS (11f abt 15yds) (2200m)
Sixth Race
8.20p.m. THE PENNY CARS HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 5) RACE DESCRIPTION
This is a one mile and three furlongs handicap race for three-yearolds and upwards which have been rated from 56 to 75. 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.

4-1 Ayr Empress (IRE), 9-2 Euro Implosion (IRE), 8-1 Natural Value (GB) RACE SUMMARY: CEDAR RAPIDS may not be totally straightforward but he boasts a useful pedigree and needs viewing positively having pulled clear of the rest when beaten only by a progressive one at Doncaster last time. He can go one better in a change of headgear, with Battle Angel second choice given her relatively unexposed profile as a stayer. 1-2-3: 1.CEDAR RAPIDS (IRE) 2.BATTLE ANGEL (IRE) 3.EURO IMPLOSION (IRE) STEWARDS NOTE: AYR EMPRESS: Following its run on 10/7/2021 it was reported that the horse was hampered two furlongs out.
