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

The fact ROMANTIC SYMPHONY has gone off at odds on when winning both her starts suggests this very well-bred filly is highly regarded and she can remain unbeaten stepping up in class. Bloom has been deserted by Ryan Moore but this recent Navan Group 3 third might still be the one to give Charlie Appleby’s charge most to think about

An interesting Derby trial, despite a small field, and Godolphin’s exciting prospect MAHO BAY may extend his winning sequence. The dangers are headed by Aidan O’Brien’s Isaac Newton, who may prove a different proposition over a longer trip with a run under his belt, while hat-trick seeking Maltese Cross could be smart and will relish the extra distance.
