On behalf of everyone at Bath Racecourse, I’m delighted to welcome you today. This raceday has been moved from Chepstow so we are happy we got the opportunity to host. A warm welcome to anyone who is visiting the site for the first time especially Chepstow’s annual members who have made the trip over to see us today.
We extend our sincere thanks to all of today’s sponsors for their generous support of British racing. We hope they, along with all our guests, enjoy a truly memorable day.

Looking ahead, we’re excited about what’s to come this season, including several key fixtures:
• Friday 5th June – An evening of racing followed by a live DJ in the paddock
• Ladies Day – Saturday 13th June – A highlight of the social calendar, featuring live music and dancing through the decades
• Friday 31st July – Live music from The Wurzels after racing
• Saturday 15th August – Rum and Reggae Night with live music
• Saturday 12th September – Absolute Country, featuring a Morgan Wallen and Luke Combs tribute
There really is something for everyone, and we are so excited to welcome you throughout the season.
Our next fixture takes place tomorrow, so if you are looking for something to do we have some great racing ahead.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all owners and trainers for their continued support. We are incredibly grateful to those who have chosen to run their horses with us today and at recent fixtures. Your commitment is vital to the success of our racedays, and we look forward to welcoming you and your teams throughout the 2026 season.
Finally, from everyone at Bath Racecourse, we wish you a great raceday. Thank you for joining us, we hope to see you again soon.

Bath Racecourse puts in place robust safety measures to ensure your safety, comfort and enjoyment. Should an incident occur which is beyond our control, it is important that you are aware of how we intend to look after you. As part of our safety management, we have employed professionally trained and experienced securitystaffto be located atvarious points throughout the Racecourse. This information is precautionary and we trust the procedures will not be needed.
Please remember in the event of an emergency, to take your belongings with you and, under the direction of Bath Racecourse representatives, proceed quickly and quietly to the agreed area.
Nothing matters more to us when racing than the safety and welfare of both horse and rider Central to that is the track itself and our groundstaff do everything in their power to provide an optimum racing
surface. On duty today we also have a dedicated and experienced team of highly-qualified Vets, Doctors and Paramedics following the action at every stage. Their key responsibility is to monitor and provide care to the competitors throughout their time at the racecourse. The locations and vehicle movements of these skilled specialists during racing are designed to provide a rapid response to any incident across the site. We also have a high-specification horse ambulance in attendance at every fixture to enable safe transport of a horse from the track to our on-site veterinary treatment facility for further treatment, or to the nearest equine referral hospital.
It is our standard practice to erect screens around any horse or jockey requiring attention on the course as this provides privacy and a safe, calm environment in which to accurately diagnose and treat the patient as necessary Please do not assume the worst if screens are erected around a horse. We are fully committed to minimizing risk in our sport, to dealing professionally and efficiently with any injury, and to maintaining the highest possible quality of care for the horses and jockeys racing here today. To find out more about our Equine Welfare policy, please visit our website www.bath-racecourse.co.uk.
You can find information on our forthcoming fixtures, hospitality packages, race sponsorship and non-raceday conferencing and events from the Customer Service desk next to the coffee shop. If you have any questions, then please do not hesitate to ask any member of the racecourse staff
Racegoers may take photographs for private use. However, no flash photography is allowed around the Pre-Parade Ring, Parade Ring or Winners Enclosure. Anyone with a professional/ high quality level of equipment needs to be granted permission to take photography on course in order to protect our racecourse image rights.
Please also be aware that racegoers entering Bath Racecourse do so by accepting our terms and conditions of entry, which state that their photograph may be taken and that this may be used in promotional material.
In orderto ease traffic congestion on leaving the course please would all traffic for Bath and the South West exit via the right hand lane, and traffic for Bristol and the North East exit via the left hand lane. It is hoped that these arrangements will provide a smoother exit for all patrons and your co-operation is appreciated.

Having shaped well at this venue reappearing for Grace Harris, THE FEMININE URGE was just a fair fifth back here last time. This is a weaker band of handicap though so she’s marginally preferred to the consistent Candy Warhol. Danger Alert could also be a big factor on his return.

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (20-25): T Carroll (42 wins from 291 runners, 14%) runs KONDRATIEV WAVE TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): T Carroll (7 wins from 51 runners, 14%) runs KONDRATIEV WAVE LONGEST TRAVELLER: VECCHIO trained by S Dixon, Rolleston, 130 miles.
THAPA VC stepped up on his comeback run when fifth here 2 weeks ago and he’s potentially well handicapped running in a 0-60 for the first time. This does look competitive, though, with Havana Club, Kondratiev Wave and My Ambition all feared.

An interesting heat with three handicap debutants. It seems most likely that the winner will come from one of the top three in the weights all of which have something to recommend them. Upstart Crow is a solid yardstick, whilst there’s more to come from Al Sharid on his handicap debut JEEWAN is the one who narrowly gets the verdict, he’s the likely pace angle and should strip fitter for his seasonal return.
