Medical - Livestock / Animal Husbandry / horse racing
English term or phrase: handicapper
He leído que "handicapper" se utiliza como término acuñado en contextos relacionados con las carreras. Pero se refieren a una persona, algo así como un perito de carreras.

Para el contexto que yo busco se refieren al propio caballo de carreras:

"The poorly conformed but good handicapper could be a stakes winner"

¿Qué podría ser, lo mismo?¿Utilizo el mismo término?

Gracias

pronosticador/handicapper
Explanation:
La traducción del término es "pronosticador", pero por lo que tengo entendido es de uso común la forma inglesa en los círculos hípicos. Puedes utilizar la forma española o la inglesa según el público objetivo de tu texto. Véase:
