Horse Care on Raceday The wellbeing of horses is integral to the thoroughbred racehorse industry.

Racecourses play their part through adherence to a clear set of industry standards.

Prior to each race meeting an independent track inspection is carried out by an IHRB accredited “Clerk of the Course”. This individual will check all equine facilities, including ground conditions, railing, stables and veterinary care facilities.

All racecourses must meet the required standards to be granted a licence to race.

At every race meeting a team of equine veterinary surgeons supervise the wellbeing of horses. All racecourse vets must be members of the Association of Irish Racecourse Veterinary Surgeons (AIRVS) and will have received specialist training in the field of racecourse work.

The IHRB Veterinary Officer at each meeting has responsibilities including: • Horse Identification - achieved through checking their microchip numbers against those recorded in their passports.

• Drug Testing - a process is vital to ensure the integrity of the sport.

• General oversight of horse care and wellbeing.

• Provision of advice to the Stewards, on veterinary matters.

A racecourse vet will check horses at the start for each race. If they deem any horse unfit to race at this point, they have the authority to withdraw the horse.

During the race the vets follow on, within the convoy of vehicles seen on the service road. Other vehicles in this convoy include doctors, paramedics and ground-staff. This whole team will swing into action if any incident occurs.

It is normal procedure to erect screens around any horse or jockey receiving treatment. This allows the veterinary or medical teams some privacy to fully assess the casualty. Racegoers should not assume the worst if screens are erected around an injured participant.

The Blue Cross Horse Ambulance are also present every meeting, the service is operated by skilled personnel using specially equipped horse ambulances. They work to support the Veterinary Team. They respond swiftly to any incidents involving injured horses and transport them off the racetrack for specialist veterinary care if required.

The presentation of the horses on race day reflects the preparation at home.

The results of good feeding, good housing, good health, and good wellbeing are clear to see when a horse appears at the races bright-eyed with a gleaming coat and a spring in their step. Raceday is great opportunity for the public to observe the high standards of care given to these horses.

All horses are accompanied on raceday by their own dedicated stable staff.

These skilled people will have spent many months and sometimes years preparing their horses for the raceday. They lavish care and attention, day in, day out, in all weathers, and the industry is extremely proud of these excellent individuals. They help maintain Ireland’s position as an international leader in the thoroughbred breeding, training, and racing industry, ensuring best-in-class integrity and equine welfare standards.

RACE VERDICT

With the Harrington team in form, FLEUR DE CHINE can be fancied to build on her debut fifth at Naas. Flight Of Fancy looked raw first time out at Cork and is a probable danger with normal improvement. Harbour Gem made a pleasing start at Thurles and has the beating of Gushing on that running.

RACE VERDICT

It may be worth taking a chance on GUILDENSTERN who chased home the talented Diego Velasquez before finishing in mid-field in the Goffs Million. Master Of The Hunt has a big chance on his run behind Henry Longfellow but his Listowel display has raised a doubt. Rocking Tree seems to be improving and could reverse Punchestown form with Shamsuddin. [Alan Sweetman]

RACE 5 PREDICTOR The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

RACE VERDICT

Rather strangely, Aidan O’Brien has captured this race only twice since his 2007 winner was his seventh in nine years. Despite that unpromising statistic, it is hard to overlook GROSVENOR SQUARE whose Beresford Stakes third sets a decent standard. Naval Force beat two Ballydoyle-trained colts at Killarney and could go close. [Alan Sweetman]

RACE VERDICT

There are loads of well-bred newcomers on show but it is a guessing game as to their merits. The market can help sort them out. Ocean Of Dreams, Blackpool and Raydamann look the most interesting. Of those with form, KINESIOLOGY has the experience of two runs to fall back on, notably a close second to a Group-placed colt over C&D last time. If he handles this ground, he can win.

RACE VERDICT

Already a winner in this series at Naas, NOBLE ANTHEM looked set to win again at the Curragh before being eased prematurely by this rider. He is unlikely to make the same error again. Fair Damsel was the beneficiary on that occasion and should be close again after a fine Gowran second since. Slate Lane is an in-form hurdler but might find this trip sharp.
