Starting price: 14/1 Wearing hood Won 0 of last 5 18 lengths
took keen hold, in rear, headway 3rd, led with one circuit to go, clear 5th, much reduced lead after 4 out, headed 3 out, lost second and weakened 2 out (jockey said gelding ran too freely)
4th
J. Tudor · C. Williams · 4yo · 11st 0lb
0
Starting price: 25/1 First run (debut) 21 lengths
in rear, outpaced and no chance before 3 out, slow jump 2 out, went modest fourth last, stayed on (jockey said, regarding running and riding, he was to take his time getting the gelding relaxed and jumping; the early pace was strong, steadying up through the middle stages, however they got racing again from the 4th last; he added he asked gelding to quicken down the side, the response was limited and gelding was effectively staying on at the one-pace; gelding was novicey at the third-last, which he ballooned losing him ground and momentum, he wanted to keep the bit up in the gelding's mouth thereafter, however gelding produced a similarly inefficient at 2 out, again landing awkwardly; it was important for him to see a stride and ensure gelding produced a better jump at the last and from that point he rode the gelding out firmly and whilst staying on pleasingly, he did feel his finishing effort was flattered by the third-placed horse weakening)

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.
