HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT SOUTHWELL

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.southwell-racecourse.co.uk

KEY Owner Breeding Breeder Jockey Trainer Sponsor Star Ratings Explained

S Br

Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:

Selected to win the race

Good chance of being placed

By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims

Unlikely to win but not totally without hope Can be given little or no chance.

OFFICI A L BH A R ATINGS E X PL AINED

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

For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

You must be 18 or over to place a bet

You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet

If you cannot produce this your bet will not be accepted

RACE SUMMARY

HERE COMES MCCOY has been hiked up 8lb for his Uttoxeter success but had plenty left in the tank there so still looks the way to go. Recent Doncaster second Storminhome appeals as the main danger to Olly Murphy’s consistent 9-y-o ahead of veteran Oscar Robertson.

RACE SUMMARY

CARYTO DES BROSSES arrives fit from a point run last month and can land this race for the second year in succession. The returning Stratagem is another who has tasted hunter success over C&D and will be a big threat if retaining anything like his old ability. Gaboriot had a productive spell in handicap chases towards the end of 2023 and looks best of the rest

RACE SUMMARY

AFTER MANY DAYS made a fairly encouraging start in handicaps when fifth at Leicester and, with Pipers Cross due to run at Huntingdon on Sunday, she could be the answer off a 1lb lower mark. Our Pink Lady wasn’t disgraced at Fakenham last time and she is second choice ahead of Kalpaga, who will be a danger to all if back to something like her best returned to this sphere following an unsuccessful stint over fences

RACE SUMMARY

The one who appeals most is SAMAZUL, who took a definite step in the right direction in a Newbury novice in January and he should have more to offer now venturing down the handicap route. Joker du Chenet is an intriguing candidate on debut for the shrewd James Owen yard and he is feared most ahead of Kilta and Arabescato
