STRAIGHT EACH WAY
Win only A bookmaker taking each way bets will display the terms on which he/she accepts such bets on the top of his/her board. This is a bet for your selection to win or be placed.
In conjunction with The RCA, the bookmakers have introduced standard each-way terms. Bookmakers will provide these terms, or better, when offering each-way betting.
· Fewer than 5 runners – all to win
5-7 runners – 1/4 odds a place 1-2
· 8 or more runners – 1/5 odds a place 1-2-3
Handicaps with 12-15 runners – 1/4 odds a place 1-2-3
· Handicaps with 16 or more runners – 1/4 odds a place 1-2-3-4
Many bookmakers will also take bets at the other race meetings today. They offer a comprehensive service, including bets settled TAX FREE at Starting Price (S.P.)
At reduced odds you can back a horse and collect if it wins or runs second to the horse nominated by the bookmaker as favourite.
Shop around for the best odds against your selection. When you have decided on where to place your bet, state the number of your chosen horse and the stake, for example “number 4, £2 win”. Listen to the bookmaker repeat the number of the horse and the stake to his/her clerk and hand your stake to the bookmaker You will then be given an itemised receipt that gives details of the bet and shows potential winnings. You should keep this ticket safe.
If your selection wins (or, in the case of a place bet, is placed), hand the ticket back to the bookmaker for settlement. NEVER destroy your ticket until after the “Weighed In” announcement has been made. There may still be a Stewards’ Enquiry and the first past the post, or placed horses, may be disqualified. On rare occasions even the horse coming fourth has been awarded the race You may bet with confidence with any bookmaker as they have all been approved by the Administration of Gambling on Tracks Ltd, which administers the betting rings at each of Britain’s 60 racecourses. The AGT also offers a full late pay service, in case a bookmaker leaves the course before you have collected your winnings. Late pay claims should be sent to AGT, 3A Kings Hall, Parsons Green, St Ives, Cambridgeshire PE27 4WY.
Tel: 01480 499180
In the unlikely event that no independent bookmaker turns up to service either end of the racecourse (Bangor and Overton car parks), Bangor Sport will be able to service all betting requirements. Bangor Sport will offer to either ‘take the price’ or use the SP as a means of settling any bet. We will endeavour to show all races (including all those from away courses) on screens at either end of the course. If you have any queries, please ask a member of staff for help.

15. A guide to the horse’s recent form and star rating. Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
HHHHH Selected to win the race.
HHHHI Good chance of being placed. HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope.
HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
16. Jockey’s Name. If there is a number next to the name, this indicates that the jockey can claim that amount in weight (lbs) off the stated riding weight
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability
The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions. A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances).
The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating.

the
DOCTOR FOLEY had to work hard to justify favouritism at Fontwell, but the runner-up has gone one better since so the form is solid and Anthony Honeyball’s seven-year-old can defy a 5lb rise. Happy Du Mesnil came within a whisker of completing a Southwell brace and should be thereabouts again. Crystal Moon, Walking The Walk and Exmoor Forest are a few more to consider in an open affair.
WIN: DOCTOR FOLEY
EACHWAY: HAPPY DU MESNIL
STEPPENWOLF made the best possible start to life with David Pipe when breaking his chasing duck at Ffos Las. An 8lb rise complicates matters but he appears rejuvenated by the switch from Ireland and is preferred to Clondaw Royale, who could start to deliver on his early promise now he tackles fences. Deerstalker is fancied to do better than he did when sent off favourite at Stratford. Grey Skies is also worth a look.
WIN: STEPPENWOLF
EACHWAY:
THERAPIST hasn’t looked back since going handicapping, rewarding those favouritebackers who kept the faith after three straight losses by going in at Southwell and Huntingdon. A 4lb rise doesn’t seem too harsh for the latest of those, and she is still well treated compared to her Flat rating. The same can be said for Ikigai Star and Dog Fox, with the latter offering encouragement when runner-up on his handicap bow at Southwell.
WIN: THERAPIST
EACHWAY: DOG FOX
After a comfortable success over the extended 2m4f at Market Rasen last month, KALEB is taken to follow up. Amy Murphy’s charge scored by a little over a length on that occasion and a 3lb rise in the ratings may not halt his progression. Fellow last-time-out winner Ballygeary should give the selection most to think about but he needs to defy a 7lb hike, while former Grade 3 winner Party Business is also noted.
WIN: KALEB
EACHWAY: BALLYGEARY
Having made a pleasing start to her career over timber, WALK OF THE ROSES can get her head in front for the first time in this sphere. David Pipe’s five-year-old had excuses for her second over 2m1f at Newton Abbot last month and she can go one better. Briefly has been knocking on the door of late and she rates as the biggest danger, while Moon Lady heads the remainder
WIN: WALK OF THE ROSES
EACHWAY: BRIEFLY
Now in the hands of new connections after an encouraging start to her career in a bumper at Galway last September, FINAL ESCAPE looks the one to beat on her hurdles bow with the step up in trip expected to suit Beau Della arrives with similar claims after a pair of runner-up efforts in bumpers, while Bing Belle is another to consider following a respectable fourth over shorter at Fontwell last month.
WIN: FINAL ESCAPE
EACHWAY: BEAU DELLA
HOME SWEET HIGHWAY must hold every chance if building on a career-best effort when runner-up over C&D last time out. Mistakes late in that contest may have cost him and, with a clearer round of jumping on this occasion, Donald McCain’s charge can get the better of The Bold Thady and Bright Sunbird, who wasn’t beaten far over further at Kelso last month. Dynamite Kentucky, Johns Dream and Nora The Xplorer complete the shortlist

Race Summary:
FINAL ESCAPE produced a promising first effort when second of 14 in a Galway bumper on debut for Margaret Mullins 9 months ago and, having been sold for 40,000 gns in October, she makes plenty of appeal now starting out over hurdles at an ordinary level Scarlet O’Tara undoubtedly remains capable of better, for all that the drop back in trip may not be ideal, while Beau Della ought to be up to making her presence felt judged on her bumper exploits.

We employ professionally trained and experienced stewards who are located predominantly around the course and are identifiable by their uniform.
In the event of a situation that requires partial or full evacuation of the stands or racecourse, announcements will be broadcast and stewards will undertake the responsibility of ushering you to a place of safety; it is essential that you follow their instructions. Please take your immediate belongings with you and proceed out of the area quickly and calmly with the guidance of the stewards.
The above is precautionary only and we trust that the procedures will never be required. However, in the event of an emergency, remember:
• Take your belongings with you;
• Under the directions of the stewards, proceed quickly and calmly to the safe area.
