always towards rear, never on terms (jockey said, regarding running and riding, gelding was having his first run over fences and his instructions were to drop him in and get him settled. he added gelding is a bridle horse who finds little once asked for an effort and therefore needs to be played as late as possible. he explained that on this occasion, the gelding didn't travel as well as he normally can and that the field began to get away from him entering the back straight, a point he put down to the Good, Good to Firm ground and the drop in trip from 3m on his previous run at Ludlow, to 2m75yds. jockey further added he was reluctant to ask for a more serious effort in the back straight, as that he felt by doing so would result in gelding pulling up and finished by saying gelding jumped the final two fences in the manner of a tired horse, but that overall he was happy with the gelding's jumping on his first try at fences)

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.
