BIG SCREEN Catterick Racecourse are pleased to announce that the big screen is present at today’s race meeting and will be at all Catterick’s fixtures during 2023.

CASH MACHINE A cash machine is available for use in the Gods Solution Bar. COMMUNICATION DEVICES The use of tablets and laptops is strictly controlled on all racecourses and they may not be used in or near any designated betting area, or for off course betting purposes. Failure to comply could result in your removal from the premises as per the Terms and Conditions of entry.

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES In the event of an incident which necessitates the partial or total evacuation of any area of the racecourse, announcements will be made over the Public Address and on the CCTV. Please follow the directions of the racecourse staff and leave your area in a calm and orderly manner. If you feel you require extra assistance please notify the nearest member of the racecourse staff.

FACILITIES FOR DISABLED RACEGOERS Facilities for Disabled Racegoers – Viewing ramps for wheelchair users only are situated next to the parade ring and in front of the grandstand.

HORSE WELFARE AT CATTERICK At all Catterick race meetings we has a minimum of two fully qualified equine vets who are employed to look after the welfare of all horses in action. They work closely with a British Horseracing Authority Veterinary Officer who is also always in attendance. In the unfortunate event of an accident or a horse becoming hurt or injured, the racecourse vets are on hand to act swiftly and treat a horse without delay.

It is now standard procedure that all racecourses have modern, fully equipped horse ambulances so that horses can be moved and treated in more comfort. If a horse is injured out on the course, the vets and their assistants will erect screens enabling them to work in private - the use of screens will not automatically mean the horse has been seriously injured. Serious injuries at Catterick Racecourse are thankfully very rare, but we regard any injury, however slight it may be, an absolute priority and we would like to assure all racegoers that we have the right people, the right equipment and right procedures to deal with them efficiently.

FIRST AID Will all racegoers please note the location of the first aid post which is at the entrance to the Disabled car Park.

RACE CONDITIONS For today’s race conditions, please see page 31.

SHUTTLE BUS Catterick are pleased to announce that they are now providing a shuttle bus service between the racecourse and Richmond town centre. Today the shuttle bus will leave the main entrance approximately 10 minutes after the last race. For further details please contact the Racecourse Office.

OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED 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.

You must be 18 or over to place a bet You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet If you cannot produce this your bet will not be accepted

SECOND RACE 1.20 about TWO MILES (1m 7f 156yds) for four yrs old and upwards

THE BEST ODDS GUARANTEED AT VICKERS.BET HANDICAP HURDLE RACE (CLASS 5) Total prize fund £7650 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £3090, 2nd £1545, 3rd £773, 4th £386, 5th £193. (Penalty Value £4039.96)

RACE FACTS Leading course trainer (18-23): D McCain (24 wins from 149 runners, 16N) runs LOVIN JUKEBOX Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): D McCain (7 wins from 44 runners, 16N) runs LOVIN JUKEBOX Weightwatcher: RESTANDBETHANKFUL won off a handicap mark of 122, his rating is now down 18lb to 104.

Longest Traveller: LOVIN JUKEBOX trained by D McCain, Cholmondeley, 130 miles.

TODAY’S TIP RESTANDBETHANKFUL failed to fire on his latest start in this sphere in August but is well worth another chance having hit the crossbar off a 7lb higher mark over fences recently at Musselburgh where he pulled clear of the rest.

Vocal Duke is feared most, for all that he’s proving to be rather hit-and-miss, while Belle Na Bann has to enter calculations on the back of her Newcastle success and Chase A Fortune would be a threat if able to get back on track.

RACE THREE

NOT WHAT IT SEEMS displayed plenty of promise on the first of 2 starts over fences last winter and, with a solid comeback run over hurdles under his belt, he looks the way to go from his easing mark. Irish-raider Ideal du Tabert can emerge as the chief threat.

TODAY’S TIP A golden opportunity for JIMMY CHOU PECOS AA, who is yet to finish out of the placings in this sphere and John McConnell’s Irish-raider should come on from his recent Hexham outing. Iorangi de l’Isle shaped well in a course bumper on his Rules debut so he looks the obvious threat, with Ravenelli seemingly best of the rest.

Longest Traveller: ABBEYHILL trained by N Mulholland, Limpley Stoke, 264 miles.

TODAY’S TIP ABBEYHILL has shown much improved form upped in trip, getting off the mark at Plumpton in November before running at least as well when second at Taunton next time, so he looks to hold leading claims. Just Jess is now 2lb lower than when winning this race in 2023 and can make her presence felt, with Howzat Hiris also one to note.

Form has been in and out this season, running one of his better races when fifth of 15 in handicap at Doncaster (20.9f) in November. Capable of getting involved if on a going day. TFRHHHII BHA85

More miss than hit the remainder of last season, but ran well when second TFRHHHHI BHA84 at Newcastle (23.7f) in November. Unsuited by the drop in trip last time, so she could go well in her bid to win this race again.

Lindsell TIMEFORM VIEW Irish point winner who landed a gamble at Plumpton (25f) in November, suited by the step up in trip. Backed up that effort when second at Taunton (23.9f) 10 days later, so he looks a major player with more still to offer.
