A guide to the horse’s recent form
RATING EXPLAINED
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: Selected to win the race
Good chance of being placed.
By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
Unlikely to win but not totally without hope.
Can be given little or no chance.
OFFICIAL BHA RATING
The 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. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating.

Nelly, Kurtanella’s stable name, ran very well on her first 2 races out, her first race being here at Salisbury where she finished second, but Joan, along with her family and friends, celebrated this as though she had won!

RALPH BECKETT
Race Summary: PERSIAN SPIRIT created a fine impression when making a winning debut at Newbury a month ago and in receipt of weight from most, is fancied to remain unbeaten. Ardennes will find this easier than the listed race he contested last time so he commands respect, along with hat-trick seeking colt Bob Mali.

Betting Forecast: 5-2 Small Fry (IRE), 7-1 Road To Wembley (GB), 8-1 Berkshire Sundance (IRE), 9-1 Frankelian (GB), 10-1 St Pancras (GB), 11-1 Crown of India (IRE), 12-1 Nini Star (FR), 16-1 Torre Del Oro (IRE), 22-1 Wilderness (GB), 25-1 Zikany (GB), 40-1 Jack The Savage (GB)
Race Summary: SMALL FRY recorded his third win from his last 4 outings in ready fashion at Chester 12 days ago and is fancied to shrug off another hike in the weights Road To Wembley is back in class and that should mean he bounces back, with Frankelian likely to give it another good shot.
