always behind (an enquiry was held into the running and riding, jockey said his instructions were to ride a patient race on the gelding as it was his first run over hurdles and he had taken time to learn when running in point to points in ireland, he further added he jumped well if novicey on the whole and that he started to weaken down the back straight on a track and trip that may have been too sharp, having turned out the back straight he continued that his priority was to finish the race and he therefore rode his mount accordingly, he finished by stating that if he had ridden him more vigorously down the back straight then he would have had to pull him up; trainer said he was satisfied with the ride and that it accorded with instructions given, he further added that he had been unable to do a huge amount of work with gelding prior to the race and that he wouldn't necessarily look to step the him up in trip on its next start)

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.
