PLAY SMARTER
JUPITER DES MOTTES was still in contention when badly hampered at the second last on his first start after rejoining Nicky Richards at Haydock last time and a chance is taken that he’ll build on that effort here. Ballin Bay has been in fine form over both hurdles and fences of late and looks the biggest danger despite a career-high mark, with Cooler Than Me also worth considering upped in both trip and grade.

TAKEYOUTOTHEISLAND is related to some useful sorts and hinted at better to come on his qualifying run last time, so is fancied to make a successful handicap debut in a race that lacks depth. Sattam met with defeat at short odds at Newcastle but his profile remains largely positive and he looks the obvious danger, whilst King Kodiak looks on a very interesting mark if not flattered by his third here last month.

RACEHORSE & JOCKEY WELFARE
The welfare of the sport’s equine and human participants is paramount to British Horseracing. All racehorses competing in Britain are stabled at the premises of trainers who are licensed by The British Horseracing Authority The standards demanded by The BHA of licensed racehorse trainers far exceed those prescribed by animal welfare legislation The British Horseracing Authority similarly licenses every racecourse, setting high standards for the racing surface and all parts of the course used by competitors, both human and equine. 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.
