Welcome to our Ratings Hub service on attheraces.com, featuring Speed, Form and our unique FormPlus figures for Thurday with selections for Hereford and Market Rasen over jumps in Britain, as well as Thurles in Ireland.
Our new Ratings Hub service is exclusive to attheraces.com and gives visitors an instant insight into the key form and speed figures for every runner in every race in the UK and Ireland.
Our Ratings Table consists of four types of rating: Official, Speed, Form and Form Plus.
Official Ratings: The current British Horseracing Authority / Horse Racing Ireland official rating and last winning official rating (if applicable).
Speed: The best Speed Rating that each horse has achieved the last six runs/last 12 months (whichever is least time), adjusted for today’s weight, enabling users to compare individual runners and ratings.
Form: The best Form Rating that our handicappers consider each horse is capable of reproducing, adjusted for today’s weight, enabling users to compare individual runners and ratings.
Attributes: Our assessment of whether today’s variables are positives or negatives for each horse:
Scope: How much improvement is the horse open to, are they likely to need the run and how good is their current form?
Conditions: How well suited the horse might be to today’s distance, ground, course and (for flat races) draw?
Trainer: What form is the trainer in?
Jockey: What form is the jockey in?
Attitude: How much enthusiasm for racing does the horse appear to have?
FormPlus: Our ultimate rating takes into account the horse’s original Form rating and adjusts for today’s variables
ECHO VALLEY is fancied to follow up after making a very promising start over hurdles with a five-length success in a maiden hurdle here last time. She sets a good standard despite carrying a penalty and has the experience to prove too strong for two interesting newcomers.
GOVERNORS ROCK is a dual bumper winner who made a winning start over hurdles on his penultimate start before running to form despite finishing down the field in the Grade 2 Sharp Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham last time. He drops into calmer waters here and first-time hood should help him get back to winning ways.
Eastern Rock is expected to progress a little now upped in trip but it's the 4yo IVOR BEAR who is the selection now he gets a chance to race beyond 2m1f for the first time. He ran to form on his reappearance/hurdles debut at the course, finishing runner-up to one who is unbeaten under rules.
Catwalk Girl will be happier back chasing but she might struggle to keep a lid on TELL THE TALE, who jumped well when making a winning start over fences at Ffos Las last time. He's up 6lb but has the potential to rate a fair bit higher yet.
LITTLEBIGGIE has shown her best form over further than this but she recorded a rating 8lb higher than her current mark of 107 when runner up last time. If she continues with the positive tactics she has employed recently she could take advantage of a potentially lenient rating at a track which should suit.
GUNNERY SERGEANT (NAP) can prove a class apart from his rivals. He has 5lb in hand on his rivals and although he is more exposed he has shown a consistent level of form. His penultimate placed effort has been boosted recently and a repeat of that would be more than enough here.
MAD MAXIOS recorded a rating 5lb higher than his current mark of 98 when an unlucky loser on his final start in the UK. He ran well for a long way until his fitness gave out on his stable debut and is expected to come on for that first run of the year so could prove good value.
