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. Pick your Racehorse, look around for the best odds on course, try to proffer the correct stake money for your wager

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. In the unlikely event of a dispute after adhering to this procedure, the bookmaker will tell the punter to approach the Ring Official, who will advise you as to your rights.

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

URBAN SPRAWL: Following its run on 19/9/2024 it was reported that the horse hung right-handed.

YAASER: Following its run on 21/9/2024 it was reported that the horse ran ﬂat.

Probable S.P’s: 15-8 Gracious Leader (GB), 6-1 Tele Red (GB), 7-1 Urban Sprawl (GB), Power of Gold (GB), 11-1 Detective (GB), 12-1 Yaaser (IRE), 18-1 Candonomore (FR), 20-1 Starliner (IRE), 25-1 Straya (IRE)

TELE RED has been running well without troubling the judge recently, but Karl Burke’s charge is now 1lb lower than when landing the corresponding event 12 months ago. He is fancied to regain the winning thread at the expense of Yaaser, who drops in class from a 2lb lower mark, having been below-par over 7f here last time out. Unexposed three-year-old Gracious Leader has scope for further progress and he merits respect on his first start for the George Boughey team.

Probable S.P’s: 3-10 Weissmuller (IRE), 6-1 Blue Pinatubo (GB), 10-1 Invitorio (IRE), 50-1 Uncle Liam (IRE)

Although WEISSMULLER has yet to open his account after four attempts, Archie Watson’s gelding sets a lofty standard with an official rating of 92. His rivals need to improve on what they achieved on debut and this looks a gilt-edged opportunity. The main threat might come from Blue Pinatubo, who showed good early pace in a Glorious Goodwood maiden. Invitorio is the pick of the other two.

A chance can be taken on SPIRIT OF ACKLAM, who has been given a bit of time off since disappointing in the London Gold Cup at Newbury in May. The son of Cracksman will find this assignment much more to his liking and with the likelihood of further progress, he can get back on track. Soowaih was narrowly denied at Hamilton recently and he remains of interest from an unchanged mark. Others to note include Pol Roger and Reyaadah Star totewin: Spirit Of Acklam

TODAY’S TRAINER TO WATCH - KARL BURKE

The Middleham trainer complete a remarkable week when he won the Cambridgeshire on Saturday with Liberty Lane, success in the first leg of the autumn double coming just 7 days after Burke saddled the first 3 home in the Virgin Bet Ayr Gold Cup. That win for Lethal Levi at our big meeting 10 days ago was a third Gold Cup triumph for Burke after successes with Daring Destiny (Jason Tate) in 1994 and Always Alight (John Egan) in 1998 and the Newmarket win was the handler’s first Cambridgeshire success at the end of a Group 1 winning season which featured an Irish 1000 Guineas success for Fallen Angel. Burke runs Tele Red in the opening apprentices’ handicap today and Invitorio in the following maiden race.

TODAY’S JOCKEY TO WATCH - DAVID ALLAN

Tim Easterby’s stable-jockey had winners at Hamilton and Ripon last week after riding two seconds at our Gold Cup meeting the week before and the locally born rider has 4 rides today after 3 at Hamilton yesterday Allan also rode two thirds at last week’s 3-day meeting and one of those horses could be in the spotlight again today when Glasses Up contests the ﬁnale over a mile and 7 furlongs at 5.20 The Mike Smith trained runner is the current joint record-holder for modern day wins at Ayr with 8 successes but the other two joint record-holders are no longer racing and the 9 year-old could register a NINTH Ayr victory if Allan can get him home in front from a mark just 2lbs higher than his last success here in August under Joanna Mason.

The drop to 7f is unlikely to be an inconvenience to Golden Valour, with the eight-year-old having been dropped 1lb for his recent fourth here, but the vote goes to SIR GARFIELD. Runner-up at the Western meeting just 12 days ago, that effort saw him bounce back after a rare blip at Catterick and his consistency can help him get his head back in front. John L Sullivan and San Isidro are more than capable of being in the mix too.

Veteran sprinter Muscika has been threatening a return to winning ways and has to be included in calculations.

RACE RESULT

2ND 3RD 4TH TIME

DISTANCES 1ST

YURINOV was having only his fifth outing when finishing a creditable fourth over 1m6f at Nottingham in July. That form has worked out well, with the runner-up subsequently scoring three times, and this extra test of stamina will likely prompt further improvement. Musselburgh winner Trojan Sun ran well again when third at Chester and is another with plenty of scope. Ebony Maw will appreciate a return to a faster surface and is just preferred to Glasses Up of the rest.
