Star Ratings Explained

Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. HHHHH Selected to win the race. HIIII Can be given little or no chance. HHHHI Good chance of being placed. HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims

OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED 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 nonhandicaps 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. For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating. Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

The Racing League Joker Card

The Joker doubles the points won by the two horses representing the team in a given race. When played, the team receives double points in that given race, but it is not applied to individual jockey points. Each manager will have the opportunity to play two Jokers during the 2025 competition. One Joker must be played at the team’s designated ‘home ﬁxture’, the other Joker can be played in any of the other 42 races, where at least 12 horses are running (or 11 horses running at Wolverhampton). The team manager will announce their intention to play a Joker in the Paddock, directly before the selected race. This is done by placing a Joker card alongside the team name on the scoreboard in the Paddock.

RACE SUMMARY This could set up nicely for JUAN LES PINS who remains dangerously well-handicapped. He’s take to end his losing run at the expense of Robeto Caro who has also been shaping well in handicaps of late and will be suited by the prospect of a strongly-run race here, while Montezuma is low mileage for a sprinter and could be open to improvement having caught the eye when an unlucky third at Hamilton last month. 1-2-3: 1.JUAN LES PINS 2.ROBERTO CARO (IRE) 3.MONTEZUMA KEY colours

THIRD RACE 6.30 ABOUT SEVEN FURLONGS (7F ABT 16YDS) FOR THREE YRS OLD AND UPWARDS

THE RACING LEAGUE 17 HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 2) (for horses in the care of trainers registered to Racing League) Total prize fund £75000 ª Owners Prize Money. 1st £30473, 2nd £15240, 3rd £7620, 4th £3810, 5th £1905, 6th £953. (Penalty Value £38655) SS

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (20-25): E J-Houghton (10 wins from 64 runners, 16%) runs GREAT ACCLAIM TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): A Balding (12 wins from 66 runners, 18%) runs KING’S LYNN LONGEST TRAVELLERS: MUSICAL TOUCH trained by R Fahey, STREETS OF GOLD trained by J Camacho, both Malton, 225 miles. RACE SUMMARY MUSICAL TOUCH hasn’t put a foot wrong since making a winning reappearance at Thirsk in April, so Richard Fahey’s 4-y-o gets the nod to notch career victory number 3 at the expense of Great Acclaim, who landed a big-ﬁeld handicap at Glorious Goodwood last week and rates as a huge danger carrying a penalty. Mister Bluebird edged out El Bodon at Yarmouth a fortnight ago and they can ﬁght out minor honours here. 1-2-3: 1.MUSICAL TOUCH (IRE) 2.GREAT ACCLAIM 3.MISTER BLUEBIRD KEY colours
