Verdict

SNOW PUNT has been knocking firmly on the door and gets a confident vote to gain a deserved breakthrough success here. Plain Or Battered is feared most on the back of a good Clonmel second, while both Tell Nobody Nothin and Le Grand Vert also need factoring in.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Claiming Race

A race in which horses are entered for a certain price, or claiming tag, which is also their sales price. An owner can claim any horse entered for the tag before the race begins, and owns them as soon as the gates open.

Also Eligible

A horse that is entered but does not draw into the body of the field due to too many entries, and thus is not permitted to start unless there are enough scratches to shrink the field size.

Fractions

The times recorded during the race; with timing starting just past the gate or when the gates open, then parroted for the quarter, half, three-quarters etc. Used as an indication of ability and speed.
