Horses can be attended to in the same time as the Paramedic Teams responsible for treating injured jockeys. The second vet follows the action from the stands and coordinates the required response to any incidents In addition, throughout the meeting a close check is kept on all horses, especially those returning after a race It is standard policy that in the event of a horse requiring veterinary treatment whilst on site, screens will be erected around the horse It is designed to afford the vet and the patient some privacy Please do not assume the worst

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS

THE SOUTHWELL RACECOURSE EXECUTIVE WOULD LIKE TO THANK OUR SPONSORS AND WISH THEM AN ENJOYABLE AND PROSPEROUS DAY’S RACING.

The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability

The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions. A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances)

The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating.

TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): S Dixon (3 wins from 16 runners, 19%) runs PERSEVERANTS

LONGEST TRAVELLER: SIR THOMAS GRESHAM trained by S Durack, Upper Lambourn, 131 miles.

Quite a useful handicap, although HICKORY does still rather stand out given the ease of his Kempton handicap debut success before Christmas. A 7lb rise doesn’t look enough to prevent him making it 4-4 but in-form pair Eligible and Chola Empire are likely to ensure he doesn’t get things all his own way.
