towards rear, not fluent and jockey lost iron briefly 3 out, headway 2 out, went fourth before last where not fluent, kept on (An inquiry was held into the running and riding of gelding, jockey stated that his instructions were to sit midfield and to try and get the gelding jumping, having felt he lost his confidence after failing in his previous run at Ascot, adding that he had formed this opinion having schooled the gelding at home, he reported that he made a mistake at the third last fence, causing him to lose his left iron, and having regained his stirrup found himself stuck to the inside, leaving him unable to improve his position until after the second last fence, he continued to add he felt in top gear throughout the race and that the gelding's jumping had suffered late on as a result, leading him to jumping the last fence slowly, he finished by stating that when taking all of the above into account, he felt that his hands and heels riding up the straight led to him obtaining the best possible placing)

Scores in a race add up to 100.How scores workModel estimates, not guaranteed. Past performance is no guide.
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.
