According to the RP website the penalty in this race for a Class 5 win is 4lb. But both Dream Dreamer and Thee and Me appear to have 7lb extra. Am i missing something? Where else can I check these race conditions?

This is the key clause contained in the full conditions of the class 5 maidens won by the horses mentioned:

For the purposes of future penalties and qualification, this
race will be treated as a Class 4 race.


The tracks run the races as class 5 so that they can keep the prize money down but still meet the conditions of their deal with the owners and the BHA. It would make much more sense if these races had penalties based on prize money won, e.g. 1lb extra for each £1000 won, which is the method used in France.

Thanks very much for the info.  Nothing like clear and fair rules to give a sport a good reputation, hey?
