Uttoxeter Racecard - Friday 25th July by Arena Racing Company

Welcome to our 2025 Boots Opticians Uttoxeter Ladies Day and a very special welcome today to our sponsors, Boots Opticians Uttoxeter, Peter Stott Plant & Haulage, Julie Busst, 4 Oaks Group, QuinnBet and MC Cleaning.

Thank you for joining us today for a fun ﬁlled, action packed 8 racecard that has had an impressive 98 horses declared for today’s races.

As ever, for Ladies Day, we will be running our very popular Style Awards which has been kindly sponsored by Boots Opticians Uttoxeter. The style awards has prizes for the top 5 outfits picked out by our judges. Head up to the flower wall near the office to enter for a chance to get your hands on one of our many prizes including the top prize of £500 cash, a spa Day for 2, a Boots Optician voucher, A £200 Grace & Dotty voucher and a table for two in our 1907 restaurant for our Winters Ladies Day.

After racing, head down to the stage to watch our Mark Wright DJ set. Mark will be playing some classic tunes to get you dancing and singing along and I’m sure it will be a fantastic show.

Also, keep an eye out for TV legend Todd Carty aka “Mark Fowler” who will be roaming around the racecourse for meet and greet opportunities and helping us raise funds for Burton Albion Community Trust.

We quickly turn around this ﬁxture for our next meeting on Sunday which is our ever popular Burton Albion Family Funday. There will be lots of entertainment to for the family including a fairground, inﬂatables, puppet shows, penalty shoot outs and much more. With Children under 18 having free admission, it really is a great value family day out.

This weekend see’s my last racedays here as Executive Director at Uttoxeter Racecourse before I move in to my group role as Regional Director. I would like to thank all of our customers and especially this amazing team that I have had the pleasure to work with during my tenure I am extremely proud of our achievements over the last 4 years during my stewardship.

I do have the pleasure to announce that Molly Day joins us today to take up the position of Executive Director Molly has vast racecourse experience behind her after stints as General Manager at Carlisle and Haydock racecourses and I’m certain she will be a huge success at Uttoxeter Racecourse. I am sure you will be joining me in wishing her well in her new role. All of us here at Uttoxeter Racecourse hope you have an enjoyable and safe day and thank you for joining us.

Good Luck!!

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.

JENTOBELLO arrives having made it 2-2 in bumpers in dominant fashion at Market Rasen 5 weeks ago (justifying strong support in the process) and Iain Jardine’s 5-y-o is fancied to make another bold bid now hurdling with Brian Hughes again in the plate. Reina del Mar made the perfect start for Tim Vaughan at Ffos Las in June and she’s feared, along with penalised Breaking Cover, who deﬁed a lengthy absence when opening his account at Newton Abbot 11 days ago. 1-2-3:

WESTERN CLOUDS has made a promising start to life over hurdles and remains open to further progress. She’s taken to follow up her recent Perth success over this shorter trip with Final Straw, who looked badly in need of the experience when fourth on hurdles debut, the main threat if making the anticipated improvement. Of the rest, Soul Limbo needs to put an underwhelming effort behind him but would have a chance on previous form.

WHERESMEMONEYGONE proved a different proposition sent chasing when running out an emphatic winner from 10lb out of the weights on first outing for Ben Pauling at Perth 22 days ago and the follow up surely beckons with further improvement on the cards. Crookbarrow has a similar sort of profile to the selection in that he showed little in his first stint under Rules but has hit the target in points ahead of this switch to chasing for a new stable. Zoffalee could be the one to fill the places.

DIESEL LINE took his form up a level for his new stable when runner-up over C&D last time and is hard to side against off the same mark here. Papa Barns also took a step forward on his yard debut when second at Worcester last month and rates the main danger, while Ez Tiger, Al Mootamarid and Ambassador also need factoring in.

Upwardly mobile mare ROCKOLA looks capable of taking this 5lb higher mark in her stride after beating Lahinch Wave and ﬁve others at Worcester last month. She could be seen in an even better light here in what promises to be a strongly-run race. Liverpool Knight wasn’t beaten far when third in this race last year and he is second choice ahead of the lightly-raced Luckie Seven, while Getaway Drumlee and Gentleman Jacques are both capable of producing bold shows off their present marks.

SCHMILSSON had been on the up as a chaser prior to losing his unbeaten record over fences at Stratford earlier this month and is taken to get back on track on only his fourth start over the larger obstacles. Ballywilliam Boy is very capable at this level but will need things to fall right if he’s to break a long losing run while Hold Onto The Line looks an interesting recruit for the triply-represented Olly Murphy yard.
