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.

✓ Horse record at this course ✓ Horse record at this distance ✓ Official rating
Won 1 of last 5 Raced here before Likes this ground (wins 29% of runs)
Why this score
  • Has raced here 1 time without winning. This course has not suited the horse so far.
  • Has not won at this distance before. We do not know if the race length suits the horse.
  • A 5.7% career win rate for D. Harry Kelly. That is below the top trainers.
TrackLab Insight
The standout talent here: three straight top-3 finishes and the best win rate in the field at roughly 1 in 5 races. Crucially, she won at this track 34 days ago and suits the distance perfectly (40% win rate between 1m6f and 2m), though the 51-day gap since her Wexford second means she'll need to shake off ring rust on a fresh start.

How odds work
Won 0 of last 5 Likes this ground (wins 25% of runs)
Why this score
  • H. De Bromhead has won 13.2% of their races in their career. Trainers at this level know how to get horses ready.
  • D. O'Keeffe has a good 15.8% record here. Knowing the course is one of a jockey's biggest strengths.
  • An average finish of 3 over recent runs. Finishing in the middle or further back so often counts against the horse.
TrackLab Insight
A raw 6-year-old with only 8 career races and just one win (14 months old), but showing consistent promise with placings in 2 of his last 3 outings. The jockey-trainer combo (De Bromhead & O'Keeffe) carries serious pedigree with 133 wins together, suggesting there's genuinely knowledgeable backing here despite the modest record.

How odds work
Won 1 of last 5 Raced here before Likes this ground (wins 40% of runs)
Why this score
  • Has an official rating of 104. This is a score from the official rater, and a higher number means a better horse. This horse is rated well.
  • P. J. Rothwell has won 5.3% of their races in their career. Trainers at this level know how to get horses ready.
  • P. J. Rothwell has a 5.8% win rate at this course. It is not their strongest track. Some stables do better at some tracks than others.
TrackLab Insight
Carries the lowest weight in the field and boasts an excellent 50% record on good ground (2 wins from 4), with a hot recent run—he won at Wexford just 12 days ago then ran 3rd there on the bounce. At 18% career win rate, he's one of the most consistent, and the fresh legs combined with proven form at these conditions make him a genuine threat.

We think it's more likely to win than the odds suggest, so if it wins, it pays more than it should. Bet £1, and if it wins you get £7.50 back.

How odds work
Wearing blinkers Won 0 of last 5 Raced here before Has won on this ground
Why this score
  • A 22% win rate on this ground from 9 runs. Just like people, horses have favourite surfaces. This one likes today's ground.
  • Has an official rating of 112. This is a score from the official rater, and a higher number means a better horse. This horse is rated well.
  • G. Cromwell wins only 6.6% of the time here. That weak record at this course counts against the horse.
TrackLab Insight
An honest campaigner at 7 years old with a 20% win rate on good ground (2 from 10), and the editorial verdict backs him as the horse most likely to press War Correspondent hard. His last outing (5th at Bellewstown, beaten just 3.5L, 47 days ago) shows he's capable on the day, though he's been away for nearly seven weeks.

TrackLab and the bookies agree on this horse's chances. Bet £1, and if it wins you get £5.50 back.

How odds work
Won 0 of last 5 Raced here before
Why this score
  • Has only raced on this type of ground once or twice, so it is hard to say if it suits the horse.
  • This is a Chase Turf race, and it suits this horse. Running in the right type of race matters.
  • J. Patrick Ryan has a 6.4% win rate at this course. It is not their strongest track. Some stables do better at some tracks than others.
TrackLab Insight
The youngest (5 years old) and lowest-rated horse in the field, with only a single career win since November 2025—he's been unable to repeat that promise in six subsequent races. Recent placings at Roscommon and Killarney suggest some aptitude, but this is thin form for a handicap chase at this level, and the modest 8% win rate offers little encouragement.

How odds work
Wearing tongue strap Won 1 of last 5 Raced here before Has won on this ground
Why this score
  • Wins 20% of the time on this type of ground. Some horses run much better on soft or firm ground. This one suits today's ground.
  • This horse is suited to this Chase Turf race. A horse in its best type of race can just focus on running.
  • A 6.1% career win rate for G. B. Noonan. That is on the low side and could matter today.
TrackLab Insight
One of the more successful in the field with 3 career wins and a solid 16% win rate, including a win at Tramore 123 days ago. Recent form shows a 2nd at Wexford (105 days back) but the Galway race 23 days ago has an unknown result, making it hard to assess where he stands in current form.

How odds work
Wearing cheekpieces Won 2 of last 5 Raced here before Has won on this ground
Why this score
  • An experienced horse with 48 career runs. Experienced horses tend to be steadier and less likely to run badly.
  • A 20% win rate on this ground from 15 runs. Just like people, horses have favourite surfaces. This one likes today's ground.
  • A 5% career win rate for M. Winters. That is below the top trainers.
TrackLab Insight
Drifted dramatically in the market despite carrying a +9 weight advantage over the field average, suggesting bookmakers have doubts. A course specialist at Wexford (3 wins from 4) and Limerick (4 wins from 12), but a poor recent effort at Cork 17 days ago leaves questions about current form—this is a horse that needs to find its feet again on familiar turf.

How odds work
Won 0 of last 5 Raced here before Has won on this ground Won at this distance 1 time
Why this score
  • A Chase Turf race works in this horse's favour. Horses often do best in one type of race and struggle in others.
  • This horse is happy on Good ground. When the ground suits, a horse can run to its best.
  • T. Doyle has a 5.8% win rate at this course. It is not their strongest track. Some stables do better at some tracks than others.
TrackLab Insight
The only horse in the field with a proven win at this exact distance (1 from 3 races), making her a genuine specialist over 2m 1f. However, recent form is patchy—a 4th at Wexford 29 days ago is her only positive effort in the last three runs, and she's struggled badly on sharp tracks (0 wins from 8).

TrackLab and the bookies agree on this horse's chances. Bet £1, and if it wins you get £67.00 back.

How odds work
Wearing blinkers Won 0 of last 5 Has won on this ground
Why this score
  • No wins at this distance yet. We cannot tell if the race is too long, too short or just right.
  • Has had 48 career runs, so it is an experienced racehorse. Experience helps in a tough race.
  • H. Sexton has a 3.6% overall win rate, which is lower than we would like to see. A jockey who wins less often can hold back even a good horse.
TrackLab Insight
The editorial selection but heavily questioned by the market at 26.0 odds—his most recent form is genuinely worrying (9th at Galway 18 days ago). Most experienced in the field (49 races), but wins only 1 in 17 attempts, and his record on good ground stands at just 11% despite today's conditions suiting him better than heavy or soft.
