took keen hold, towards rear, hung left after 4 out, pushed along and outpaced before 3 out, ridden after 3 out, behind but kept on well run-in, went third towards finish (jockey was questioned regarding his riding in the home straight. He stated that his instructions had been to ride the mare fairly prominently but with cover as the mare had shown a tendency to race keenly. He added that after taking her time to settle, he had urged the mare to close on the leaders coming down the hill but when asked for an effort after the fourth-last hurdle the mare had hung badly left-handed in behind rivals, a fact he had reported at Scales. He further added that he had been unable to ride the mare under a full drive as the mare had continually hung left-handed and he therefore rode a hands and heels finish, passing beaten horses and only got to 3/4 length of the second placed mare due to that mare tiring. The Veterinary Officer subsequently reported that a post-race examination of the mare appeared to show the mare had sustained a knock to her right-fore knee and there was heat in that joint)

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.
