Star Ratings Explained
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: HHHHH Selected to win the race. HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. HHHHI Good chance of being placed. HIIII Can be given little or no chance. 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 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.
WHERE TO BET There are a variety of places to bet at the course; Britbet has selling points throughout the racecourse - easily identified by the Britbet signs. The bookmakers are located in front of the grandstand in the ‘Betting Ring’. The bookmakers display their odds for each race and compete to offer the best price to customers. These are fixed price bets and the amount of your winnings will be printed on your betting slip. Search around to get the best price for your selection. Minimum Stakes The Tote has a minimum bet of £2. The bookmakers vary but if they have a minimum it will be shown on the boards displaying their odds. If in doubt – just ask.

Low mileage 4-y-o CLOTH OF GOLD did about as well as possible under the circumstances in a better race considering a less-than-ideal trip at Southwell on his most recent outing and is taken to capitalise on this marked drop in grade. Mwafaq continues to thrive and seems sure to be on the premises again with this easy 1 1/4m likely to be within range. Moonrunner has been freshened up after a poor run atYarmouth and is also interesting, for all that he may be better suited by a more galloping track.

LAST TRUMP looks to have got into handicaps on a handy mark judged on the strength of his debut form, so he’s put forward as the answer with the longer trip likely to suit. Hebridean Nomad was in good form when last seen at the beginning of the year and is an obvious danger returning from a 6-month absence with his yard very much among the winners. Mountbatten also merits consideration.

NORHAM was getting the message late on his debut at Chepstow last month and strikes as the type to take a big step forward now upped to a trip more in keeping with his pedigree, so it’s reasonable to believe he could improve past standard-setter Eighth Immortal. Mount St is another likely improver and also needs considering. 1-2-3: 1.NORHAM (IRE) 2.EIGHTH IMMORTAL (IRE) 3.MOUNT ST (IRE) KEY colours

HORSE & JOCKEY WELFARE AT LINGFIELD PARK Nothing matters more to us when racing than the safety and welfare of both horse and rider. Central to that is the track itself and our groundstaff do everything in their power to provide an optimum racing surface. On duty today we also have a dedicated and experienced team of highly-qualified Vets, Doctors and Paramedics following the action at every stage. Their key responsibility is to monitor and provide care to the competitors throughout their time at the racecourse.

We also have a highspecification horse ambulance in attendance at every fixture to enable safe transport of a horse from the track to our on-site veterinary treatment facility for further treatment, or to the nearest equine referral hospital. It is our standard practice to erect screens around any horse or jockey requiring attention on the course as this provides privacy and a safe, calm environment in which to accurately diagnose and treat the patient as necessary.
