jumped right on occasions, prominent, jumped right and dropped to rear 1st, pushed along before 3 out, soon weakened (jockey said, regarding the running and riding, that the trainer had left the way the gelding should be ridden to him. he added that the gelding normally races keenly and he realised quite early on in the race that the gelding, was not travelling as well as he expected and had changed legs several times. he further added that he had considered that this was because the gelding was unsuited by the good to firm, good in places going, having had good form on Soft ground, which he had reported at scales on weighing in. he further added that that he had asked the gelding for an effort around the final bend but the gelding had failed to pick up and had again changed legs. the trainer confirmed that the way the horse was to be ridden was left to the rider as he had schooled and ridden the gelding in his work at home and added that he was satisfied with the ride given. the trainer further added that the gelding had been difficult to train having suffered an injury following its previous run at this course in january. trainer said gelding would prefer a softer surface than today's good to firm, good in places)

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.
