TFRHHHII BHA122

FORM 5-04656 C

TIMEFORM VIEW Prolific hurdler at this venue earlier in his career Losing run stretches back to 2020 though and he’s out of the weights on this very belated chase debut.

Probable S.P’s: 1-3 Tommy’s Oscar (IRE), 7-2 Baron de Midleton (IRE), 16-1 Captain Zebo (IRE)

PLAY SMARTER

TIMEFORM

TOMMY’S OSCAR ran up to the pick of his hurdles form when landing the Grade 2 Lightning Novices’ Chase at Doncaster in January and his presence here forces his 2 rivals out of the weights. Captain Zebo is a Carlisle specialist but goes over fences very late in life so Baron de Midleton will probably chase the selection home

TFRHHIII BHA-

FORM 666

TIMEFORM VIEW Made fairly encouraging start in Newcastle bumper in December but has offered very little on both outings over hurdles since.

TFRHHHHH BHA-

FORM1-43

TIMEFORM VIEW Successful on his only outing in Irish points and improved on his hurdling debut form after 12 weeks off when third of 9 at Ayr (20.4f) last month. Tongue strap applied and he has major claims being open to further progress. 14Feb

TFRHHHII BHA-

FORM 1243

TIMEFORM VIEW Fairly useful bumper winner who shaped with some promise when third of 6 on his Kelso hurdling debut (16.2f) last month, losing ground when pecking on landing 2 out. Sure to have learnt from that and makes appeal in a weak race

TFRHHHHI BHA107 FORM 033

TIMEFORM VIEW Down the field in bumper at Ayr on debut but offered a lot more when third in pair of novice hurdles there since. One for the shortlist for in-form yard

TFRHHHII BHAFORM1234

TIMEFORM VIEW Winning pointer who failed to justify shortpriced favouritism fitted with cheekpieces when fourth in a Clonmel hunter in January Has since left Gordon Elliott (£18,000) and could have more to offer on his first start over hurdles.

DECLARED RUNNERS 9 2022: FORPADDYTHEPLUMBER (IRE) 6

PLAY SMARTER

HAVEANOTHERGOFLO was still green but took a big step forward from his hurdling debut effort when third at Ayr last month. With further progress on the cards and the application of a first-time tongue tie, Donald McCain’s charge gets the nod. Monochromix has shaped promisingly in a couple of novice hurdles so he could emerge as the main threat, with Wearelongterm and Kingston Bridge another couple worth noting.

EASTER FAMILY DAY

SATURDAY 8 APRIL

THE MOST ROARRRSOME DAY OF THE YEAR | TICKETS FROM £22

In April 2015 the family of Peter Phizacklea O.B.E. surprised him on his 78th Birthday by sponsoring a race in memory of his late wife Pauline.

The Phizacklea family had such a memorable day that they have continued to sponsor a race each year since, (with the exception of two years during Covid). Today sees the 7th running of the Pauline Phizacklea Memorial Hurdle in memory of a loving wife, mother & grandmother.

Sadly missed - always in our thoughts

PLAY SMARTER

IMPERIAL ALEX took a big step forward when getting off the mark at Warwick and a 5lb rise doesn’t look sufficient to prevent him from following up Veteran Lopes Dancer is weighted to have a say and next on the list ahead of the consistent Blazing Port.

PLAY SMARTER

MAID O’MALLEY has slipped to a handy-looking mark and also returns after a wind operation so this course winner is taken to resume winning ways Dubai Days arrives in good order and is feared most in his bid for a first win of the season, with Paddy The Horse appealing as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.

BHA Officials are here to ensure that the racecourse delivers those standards. In addition Carlisle Racecourse employs two veterinary surgeons, whose sole responsibility it is to provide care to the horses throughout their time at the racecourse. In the event of an incident on the racecourse, any horse affected will receive immediate treatment from the racecourse’s veterinary team Qualified paramedics and doctors are also on hand in the case of any incident involving a jockey If any incident occurs during a race it is routine practice for screens to be erected around the horse or jockey receiving treatment. This is to allow the veterinary or medical personnel to make a safe and accurate diagnosis and so that they may perform any treatment in a private and calm environment If necessary, horses and riders will be transported from the course to receive further treatment at the nearest equine hospital or Accident & Emergency hospital.
