RACE SUMMARY

REINADO would likely have been placed had he negotiated the last successfully at Ffos Las 3 weeks ago and on the back of that encouraging effort, he looks the way to go. Feet on The Ground needs to settle down but she should be a factor from this sort of mark.

QUEENOFTHEJUKEBOX was talented enough to win 2 bumpers last season and taking on her own sex, this looks a good starting point for her over hurdles.

RACE SUMMARY

AWORKINPROGRESS found another chunk of improvement when bringing up a chase 4-timer at Lingfield when last seen 9 months ago and, with a 7lb rise for that success looking fair, he makes plenty of appeal in his bid to maintain his 100% record in this sphere. Gold Clermont is a very intriguing runner on debut for Olly Murphy and confidence behind her in the betting would look most significant. Broomfields Cave on belated return completes the shortlist.

RACE SUMMARY

Last year’s winner LIME DROP was shaping up encouragingly prior to falling 2 out on her return over C&D 4 weeks ago and is given the narrow vote to come out on top.

Passing Katie and chase debutante Blacksamssenorita are feared most.

RACE SUMMARY

While a couple of these arguably possess greater long-term potential, JASMINE D’AIRY is the most accomplished as things stand and she will prove a tough nut to crack. The form of the 20.5f Plumpton mares’ maiden she won during the spring looks all the better in light of the runner-up’s subsequent winning spree and this drop back in trip is unlikely to pose a problem.

Choice Runner and Brixson are feared most in that order of preference, while point winner U S Marshall also needs a second look.

THANK YOU The Uttoxeter Racecourse Management team would like to thank all racegoers for attending today and ask for your patience and co-operation on leaving due to the high level of traffic heading out of the racecourse. Thank you.

HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT UTTOXETER 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.

RACE SEVEN

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.
