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.
Runswick Days won The Santander In Memory of Robert Forster Handicap Steeple Chase at Sedgefield on Tuesday 11th November 2014.
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 stable runs CAWTHORNE CRACKER today. LONGEST TRAVELLER: ALIBEY trained by D Cunha, Newmarket, 217 miles. RACE SUMMARY
SPARTAN TIMES is still unexposed as a hurdler and looks well-in based on his recent Flat exploits, so he makes plenty of appeal. Jolie Coeur Allen wasn’t beaten far over C&D on his most recent outing and should go well again with Charlie Maggs a positive jockey booking. Recent winner Cawthorne Cracker is also respected.

RACE SUMMARY STEEL RAVEN has been progressing well since upped to 1 1/4m+ on the Flat and appeals as the type to take well to hurdling. He’s preferred to Jerseygeordie, who made much more impact tried over hurdles than in a handful of starts on all-weather for Jamie Osborne when third at Newton Abbot last month, form which has already been franked by the first 2.

HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT SEDGEFIELD RACECOURSE 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. The locations and vehicle movements of these skilled specialists during racing are designed to provide a rapid response to any incident across the site. 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. Please do not assume the worst if screens are erected around a horse. We are fully committed to minimizing risk in our sport, to dealing professionally and efficiently with any injury, and to maintaining the highest possible quality of care for the horses and jockeys racing here today.

JET OF DREAMS quite possibly needed the run after a 4-month break at Uttoxeter recently and having been given a chance by the handicapper, is a tentative selection to repeat his win in this race last year. Mary gives the impression she’ll benefit from this return to shorter and is feared most.

RACE SUMMARY CLOSE HOUSE showed plenty in what is usually a warm race at Ayr back in the spring and is a straightforward choice to get off the mark at the second time of asking. Red Shea was no match for a useful prospect at Cork last month but kept on to pull clear of the remainder and should at least give the selection something to think about if coping with the sharper test. Lower De Couely, an easy winner on her sole outing in Irish points, shouldn’t be overlooked in the betting, either. 1-2-3: 1.CLOSE HOUSE (IRE) 2.RED SHEA (IRE) 3.LOWER DE COUELY (FR) KEY colours
