held up in rear, went modest third after 3 out, kept on from 2 out, never near to challenge (inquiry was held into the riding of gelding, which was settled towards the rear of the field before being asked for his effort at top of hill when turning into home straight to finish third, beaten 12 3/4 lengths; jockey stated that his instructions were to drop in and sit in rear, as he is a hold up horse; he explained that having sat towards the rear for first circuit, he attempted to make a move on the inside but was blocked by a rival and had to switch out from behind a wall of horses; he further explained that he wanted to get to top of the hill on bridle as his mount wouldn't have finished race off if he had asked any earlier as he felt that the eventual winner was setting a very strong pace; he added that given the way the race was run, he felt that his mount was staying on at one pace under pressure and, in his opinion, had obtained the best possible placing)

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.
