Ayr Racecard - Saturday 29th October

Welcome to the Marine & Lawn Hotels & Resorts Raceday, our first major meeting of the 2022-2023 jumps season which culminates with the Coral Scottish Grand National Festival in April.

This is also our last weekend fixture of the year and there promises to be a party atmosphere.

I’d like to thank Marine & Lawn Hotels & Resorts for their generous sponsorship this afternoon. It is always a pleasure to welcome new sponsors to Ayr and their support is greatly appreciated.

I wish the Marine & Lawn Hotels & Resorts staff and guests an enjoyable afternoon and sincerely hope to see them return here in the future.

We have an exciting day’s racing in prospect with some of the leading names in racing here in person today or represented at the track.

Champion jockey Brian Hughes has a full book of seven rides and his nearest pursuer in this season’s championship Sean Bowen also has several rides.

Many of the leading trainers in Britain and Ireland have runners and the quality of horses in action is high.

One of the feature races is the Marine Troon Hotel & Spa Handicap Hurdle and the eight strong field in this have won no fewer than 35 races between them which shows just how competitive this contest is.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the team here at Ayr for their dedication and hard work which go a long way to ensuring the success of days like these.

After the final race we have entertainment for three hours and I hope everyone has an enjoyable and successful day at Ayr Racecourse.

David Brown Managing Director Ayr Racecourse

RACE RESULT DISTANCES

2ND 3RD 4TH TIME

DEDANSER showed plenty of ability over hurdles last term, but he always looked the type to make a better chaser in time so Donald McCain’s six-year-old is taken to make a winning start over fences off what looks a very workable mark. Son Of The Somme is another who could be better his timber form over the larger obstacles, while Sputnik bring some good chasing experience to the table and can fare best of the rest.

RACE RESULT DISTANCES

Runner-up in the Martin Pipe at one stage in his career, DALLAS DES PICTONS has been a largely frustrating sort since then but his most recent effort over fences at Carlisle signalled a return to form. New trainer Dianne Sayer may well have found the key to him and he is narrowly preferred to the returning Wakool, who was so progressive in this sphere throughout last season. Irish raider Everybreathyoutake and Silver Flyer can also have a say in proceedings.

HORSE CARE AT AYR

At every race meeting at Ayr there are three specially qualified equine vets appointed to look after the welfare of all horses in action.

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.
