held up in rear, mistake 3rd, mistake 3 out, soon tenderly handled and tailed off (jockey was questioned regarding her riding; she said her instructions were to find the rail, try to get the gelding to complete the course and obtain the best possible placing in the process, she said the pace was solid and as a consequence her mount had struggled to lay up throughout, before adding that the gelding had jumped the third last untidily before being quickly outpaced when not responding to her urgings shortly thereafter, she addedd that she considered it was in gelding's best interests to keep a good hold of his head with the odd slap down the neck and fill the gelding up until well into the straight to ensure that he finished the race off, whereupon when asked for a finishing effort between the last two hurdles, he stayed on at the one-pace and passed two very tired horses before finishing 35 lengths behind the third placed runner; vet said that a post-race exam failed to reveal any abnormalities; jockey's explanation was noted.)

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.
