bumped start, took keen hold, in touch with leaders, pushed along and outpaced 3f out, switched left and on far side of group over 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, went third towards finish (jockey said gelding ran green)
took keen hold, raced wide, prominent, niggled along and lost position gradually from 2f out (inquiry was held into ride; rider was interviewed and shown recordings of race; jockey said his instructions were to drop filly in to get her relaxed and to find her way through the race, with the hope that filly would keep finding all the way to line; he added that she jumped better from stalls than anticipated causing filly to be left on the outside without cover, which resulted in her racing very freely for the first 1 1/2f; as a result he felt that filly had nothing left in final 2f, having become very tired due to over racing early on and, although close to the leaders, there was nothing more that he could do to obtain a better position and he felt that resorting to whip would not have been beneficial; jockey also said that having talked to trainer after race, he believed that filly could potentially be suited to a drop back in trip to 5f; vet said that a post race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities; stewards noted the rider's explanation)

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.
