held up in rear, shaken up after 3 out, headway 2 out, stayed on run-in, nearest finish, eyecatcher (jockey said, regarding running and riding, that he had never ridden this animal before and had been instructed to drop him in, get him switched off, try and get him to see out his race and to do his best. He described his mount as jumping off on the wrong lead, to have settled well but jumped left and hung to the left. He said that his mount could not go with the leading pack after the third last hurdle after they had quickened down the hill. He did not use his whip as he had been made aware that his mount would not respond to it but admitted that he got going in the straight. He explained that his mount was ridden wide on the best of the ground but had handled this inside track well. Trainer confirmed the riding instructions and informed the Stewards that his charge was a four year old having his first run in a handicap hurdle. He stated that it was unlike his charge to hang. On viewing the video he felt that his charge was off the bridle at the top of the back straight and the rider was pushing his mount without going for the whip. He confirmed at a later stage of this enquiry that the rider had carried out his instructions. vet said gelding lost a left hind shoe in running and otherwise was post race normal)

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.
