led but pestered, headed but pressed leader 10th, pushed along and lost position after 14th, dropped to rear 3 out, behind when fell 2 out (an enquiry was held to consider whether the jockey, had continued in the race when it was contrary to the gelding's welfare, before falling at the second-last fence; vet said that a post-race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities and that the gelding was recovering within normal parameters; the jockey said the gelding had raced prominently throughout but came under pressure from a circuit out, to which it responded initially but gradually weakened back through the field; he added that the gelding had jumped the previous two fences cleanly and was not losing ground on the two runners racing directly in front of him, whilst maintaining a good speed; however, having committed to jump the second-last fence, he slowed appreciably once inside the wings and jammed on in the final strides approaching the obstacle, resulting in the gelding losing all its momentum and falling; his explanation was noted)

What these words mean
Underrated horse
We think this horse has a better chance than the bookmakers' odds suggest.
Our top pick
The horse with the highest TrackLab Score in the race.
TrackLab Score
Our model's estimate of a horse's chance of winning, as a number out of 100. The scores in a race add up to 100.
Ground
How the going was on the day, from Firm (hard and dry) to Heavy (very wet and muddy). On all-weather tracks it's Standard, Fast or Slow.
Race level (Class)
From Class 1 (elite) down to Class 7 (lowest).
Group, Grade and Listed
The top races. Group 1 on the Flat and Grade 1 over jumps are the highest level, then 2 and 3. Listed races sit just below.
Handicap
The handicapper gives better horses more weight to carry, so in theory they'd all finish together.
Maiden
A race for horses that haven't won yet.
Novice
A race for horses that are new to this type of race.
Chase, hurdle and bumper
Chase: jumps over fences. Hurdle: jumps over low hurdles. Bumper: a flat race for young jump horses.
Distance (m and f)
m is a mile and f a furlong, about 200 metres; 8 furlongs make a mile.
Each way
A bet that pays out if your horse wins or finishes in the top 3 (how far down it pays varies by race). It is really two bets.
Weight
How much the horse carries, including the jockey. 9st 5lb means nine stone five pounds.
Jockey claim
An apprentice jockey can claim a weight discount, so the horse carries a little less.
Headgear
Blinkers, visor, cheekpieces, tongue tie, hood and eyeshield change what the horse sees or feels.
