raced freely, towards rear, going okay but waiting for room 1f out, switched left and in the clear final 110yds, kept on towards finish, never near to challenge (jockey said his instructions were to settle the gelding and obtain cover then ride his race from there, jockey added that he had found himself further back in the field than he had intended, after suffering interference shortly after the start. jockey added that the pace was slow, and he thought the field would race down the centre of the track but instead the runners drifted towards the outside stand rail. Jockey added that when asking for an effort 1 1/2 furlongs out he found himself being denied a clear run, a fact which he reported at scales, before being able to ride out to the line inside the final 1/2 furlong to obtain, in his opinion, the best possible placing; trainer confirmed the instructions and that the ride accorded with the instructions given, which was noted; vet said a post-race examination found the gelding to be lame right-hind)

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.
