PAUL AND JIM POWER ON There looks to be no stopping the Paul Mulrennan and Jim Goldie juggernaut as they continue to tighten their grips on the Jockeys’ and Trainers’ Championships for the 2022 Flat season at Ayr. Paul rode a double last Monday on Bruno’s Gold for Archie Watson in the Scottish Sun Ladies Night Handicap over 1m 2f followed by a win on Shine On Brendan for Jim Goldie in the concluding mile handicap.

Paul now sits 24 points clear of Clifford Lee while Jim leads Mike Smith, who was on the mark with Earn Your Stripes in the six furlong handicap, by 17 points.

Summerstorm Bloodstock lead West Loudon Racing Club by 15 points to 10 in the Owners’ Championship.

The master of Belstane Stables is enjoying yet another superb year on the Flat and had a two year-old winner here last Monday with the first time out Prince Of Pillo who was very impressive in winning the Hospitality At Scottish Sun Ladies Night Restricted Novice Stakes under Callum Rodriguez. He runs another juvenile Rory The Cat in the maiden at 2.25pm and saddles Aberama Gold in today’s feature the Ayr Gold Cup Trial Handicap over six furlongs. The five year-old was touched off by a head by Quest For Fun here earlier in the month and will be hoping to turn the tables on that rival this afternoon.

Callum is a rider who has enjoyed a steady rise through the ranks since riding his first winner in 2015. He enjoyed his best ever yearly total last year when he rode an impressive 76 winners and he is continuing that run of form this year. He was seen o good effect here last Monday when riding Prince Pillo to win the novice stakes and his mounts this afternoon include another Keith Dalgleish two year-old – Rory The Cat in the Longines Irish Champions Weekend EBF Maiden Stakes at 2.25pm.

Ewan took over the Hawick stable from his father last year and is building up a good team of horses under both codes and comes here with three runners today. One of these is Jordan Electrics who runs in the feature contest the Ayr Gold Cup Trial with Rowan Scott riding. The six year-old has won twice here and was second in a big York handicap earlier this month after being touched off here in June by Call Me Ginger.

Since riding his first ever winner here in 2012 when he was presented with his prize by Prince Charles, Connor hasn’t looked back and enjoyed his best ever year in 2021 with 72 winners. He is already homing in on that total having notched well over 50 wins already this year. He has every chance of adding to that this afternoon as he has a strong book of rides including Spice Store for Michael & David Easterby in the Book Direct At Western House Hotel Handicap over seven furlongs.

FORM RATINGS Included in the form guide below each horse is a form rating, calculated from the horse’s previous performances, taking into account a number of variables such as finishing position, distance won/beaten by, horses beaten/beaten by, weight carried, race time (compared with the standard time), going allowance, number of days since that performance, etc.

Horses which have not raced will not have a form rating, as may some horses which have raced but not recently in Britain or their performances to-date have not yet merited a rating.

Brando was the winner of the Ayr Gold Cup on Saturday, 17th September, 2016.

HOW TO BET 1.

2.

Ask the Bookmaker for your bet by naming the horse. The bookmaker will repeat your bet to his clerk, correct bookmaker if he makes a mistake and receive your Betting Ticket as a receipt for your bet.

3.

If your horse wins, give your Betting Ticket to the bookmaker, check your winnings.

4.

Check with the bookmaker when placing a bet, the Place Terms. Place Betting, not all on course bookmakers accept each way bets, ie. for a win or a place.

5.

EACH WAY BETTING

6.

Some course bookmakers have minimum stakes.e.g. £1, £5, £10 but small backers are catered for in the racecourse Betting Shops.

All bookmakers must display on their boards whether they are betting each way or to win only.

MASCOT RACE 12.45pm

THE AYRSHIRE CANCER SUPPORT CHARITY MASCOT RACE Sponsored by PTS Clean

MASCOT RACE

1

PIEMAN

Kilmarnock Pies are famous the world over and mascot Pieman is hoping to claim the headlines this afternoon by beating his rivals to win our mascot race. He will have to step up on his performance on July 3 when he trailed in well behind his arch rival Pandamonium.

2

NEIGH CHANCE

Neigh Chance represents Ayr Racecourse and is another mascot hoping to improve on his run earlier this month. He has the advantage though of this being his home track and as such he knows every blade of grass and has plenty of course and distance form. He won’t want to be giving Pandamonium such a big start this time round.

3

HOPE

Hope the elephant represents Ayrshire Cancer Support and the crowd will be cheering them on in their attempt to win the charity mascot race. Hope made their course debut earlier in the month and weren’t disgraced and will be aiming to do even better this afternoon. Good luck !

4

TAMFEST

Tam’s menacing presence failed to intimidate his opponents on Likit Family Raceday in aid of Ayrshire Cancer Support but he will be determined to spook his rivals tpday and lay claim to the coveted trophy that goes to the winner. One again we will have a little touch of Halloween on a July afternoon.

8

www.ayr-racecourse.co.uk

5

PANDAMONIUM

The Ayr United Panda controversially won the mascot race on July 3 after seemingly stealing a few yards at the start.

The officials will be keeping their eyes on pnadamonium today but he is still very much the one to beat and is the hot favourite to win again. Watch out for a bit of not so friendly rivalry between Pandamonium and the Pieman

THOR

After Batman’s disappointing performance at our first July mascot race on July 3 Thor has been drafted in to represent the superheroes and will be using all his superpowers to ensure he leaves his seven rivals trailing. The God of Thunder means business this afternoon.

7

DANNY DOMINO

Danny Domino has won our charity mascot race in the past and also finished runner up once so is certainly up for a slice of the action today returning to the track after a three year absence. He has been training hard though feasting himself on Domino Pizzas leading up to today’s challenge and says he is in tip-topping condition!

8

BURNSY

Representing Ayrshire Bulls Burnsy the Bull was runner up behind Pandamonium earlier in the month and will be hoping to turn the tables on his old rival today. Once again he will be hoping to come with a late charge for glory.

Well Planted could be fairly treated on the level after a productive spell over timber, though he did finish down the field in that sphere at Cartmel on Saturday. It may, however, be worth focusing on the Jim Goldie-trained GRACES QUEST, who is back up in trip after bumping into a progressive rival when second over 1m3f at Hamilton last week. Tendentious and Witham River should find things less demanding in this company and can also get involved.

PJANOO only found the subsequent Group 2 winner Isaac Shelby too good on his debut at Newbury in late May and that form suggests that he could be hard to beat this afternoon. Feel The Need was not beaten far over course and distance on his racecourse bow a couple of weeks ago and he could make the frame. Rory The Cat needs to improve to beat the aforementioned pair but he is the pick of the remainder.

Narrowly denied over C&D last week, MONSIEUR KODI can deservedly gain compensation here off an identical mark. Conditions look ideal once more for the son of Kodiac and he gets the vote ahead of the likes of Kilconquhar, who went close at Hamilton, and last time out C&D winner Classy Al. Dick Datchery and Hollis Brown can also have a say in proceedings.

TODAY’S FEATURE RACE

AYR GOLD CUP TRIAL, CLASS 3, 6F £30,000 This afternoon’s feature race sees the first running of the Class 3 Ayr Gold Cup Trial over six furlongs at 4.10pm.

The 12 strong field for this £30,000 contest is headed by top weight Aberama Gold from the Keith Dalgleish yard.

The now five-year-old won the nursery handicap at the Ayr Gold Cup Festival in 2019 and less than a month later added black type to his profile when landing the Rockingham Stakes at York.

He has come down in the weights recently but showed he retains plenty of ability when going down by a head here in a six furlong handicap on July 4. He reopposes that opponent today with Callum Rodriguez riding again.

The aforementioned Quest For Fun will also be a huge player in today’s race with Graham Lee riding while another to catch the eye is Snash from the in-form Tim Easterby yard.

Last year’s Ayr Bronze Cup winner Call Me Ginger is also in the field with Paul Mulrennan riding for Jim Goldie and this consistent gelding won here in June just touching off Jordan Electrics who also runs today with Rowan Scott in the plate for Ewan Whillans.

A terrific contest in prospect and it will be very interesting to see what horses progress from the trial to race in either the Ayr Gold Silver or Bronze Cups come September.

Call Me Ginger, second from left, beats Jordan Electrics at Ayr in June.

Quest For Fun pips Aberama Gold here earlier in the month.

A case can be made for plenty in this field and C&D winner Jordan Electrics, who produced a career-best effort when runner-up at York last time, should figure prominently. However, QUEST FOR FUN continued his progression when scoring over course and distance two weeks ago, getting the better of a number of today’s rivals, and is narrowly preferred. Aberama Gold finished a close second on that occasion and can also have a say.

In a competitive contest the marginal preference is for DIAMONDONTHEHILL, who was only beaten a neck into second over 7f at Thirsk last time and the four-year-old is only 1lb higher in the ratings. Brazen Bolt failed to fire at York last time but is a player based on his two narrow defeats in June, while Golden Apollo and Iris Dancer are others who merit places on the shortlist.

Previous course winner YAASER recently hinted that a step up to 1m could work in his favour, having kept on well over 7f on his most recent outing at this track. He is now rated 11lb higher than his last winning mark, but he seems progressive enough to handle that. Under Fox is another to have shown encouragement over this trip, so he looks the biggest threat ahead of Diamond Haze.

During a race two vets follow the action from the centre of the course and can attend a casualty in the same response time as the Medical Teams responsible for the welfare of the Jockeys.

The third vet is based at the Stable Yard where a close check is kept on all horses especially those returning after a race.
