BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE
Race Description This is a two miles and one furlong handicap hurdle race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 125. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 60 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 170.

CELEBRATING 3 DECADES OF PUDDING MAKING
The Connell family have been visiting Cartmel for over 40 years and are very pleased to be supporting Cartmel Races today.
Sue Connell remembers first meeting her father�in�law, Tony Connell, at Cartmel Races in August 1993 Tony was by the Paddock Running�in�Rail on his hands and knees, rummaging though the grass, trying to piece together his torn up, winning bet slip after a Stewards Enquiry. There was never a dull moment with Tony and Johnny and they are both very sadly missed
Tony Connell ~ 06/01/1949 – 01/07/2013 ~
Johnny Connell ~15/02/1969 – 27/09/2023 ~

Race Description This is a two miles and five furlongs handicap steeple chase for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 105. Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 7lb.

CONDITIONAL JOCKEYS’ HANDICAP HURDLE RACE (CLASS 5) (DIV I)
for three yrs old and upwards ¨ Total prize fund £7650 Owners Prize Money. 1st £3090, 2nd £1545, 3rd £773, 4th £386, 5th £193. (Penalty Value £4039.96)
Race Description This two miles and one furlong handicap hurdle race has been designed for three-year-olds and upwards which are rated from 0 to 100. In most National Hunt handicaps, there is a minimum weight of 10st so any horse whose official rating would allocate them less than that still has to shoulder that burden. The horses that fall into this category are said to be racing from ‘out of the handicap’ – usually a distinct disadvantage.

PLAY SMARTER
A number of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks a good opportunity for LIGHTENING COMPANY to make light of a 5lb rise and follow up his C&D success last month. Fellow C&D scorer Iolani arrives in good nick and is feared most with last year’s victor Mr Rumbalicious and the handily-weighted Shantou Lucky also in the picture if back on song

Race Description This is the second division of Race 6. Some races can often prove very popular with owners and trainers and as a result more horses are declared to run than the official safety limit allows for To avoid horses being denied a run, which is obviously disappointing for connections, the British Horseracing Authority allows the race to be split into two divisions, with each contest carrying identical race conditions.
