BETTING
Select your horse. Note their name and saddlecloth number
Choose your bet. ‘To win’ or ‘each-way’ are popular types of bet.
‘To win’ is for your horse to come first.

2. BHA rating = the higher the number, the better the horse
3. Timeform view and TFR rating
4. HORSE’S TRAINER & THEIR LOCATION

Probable S.P’s: 11-10 Masters Legacy (IRE), 9-4 Fox Pro (FR), 7-2 Gustavian (IRE)
MASTERS LEGACY clearly can’t have been right last time and, having been freshened up, is well worth another chance to confirm the promise of his C&D chase debut success

EARTH KING (IRE) (23)
TIMEFORM VIEW Bumper winner who has shown plenty of promise when reaching the frame in 2 novice hurdles this winter Likely has more to offer and this looks a very good opportunity for him.
3 RAPID RIVER (IRE) (12)
TIMEFORM VIEW Showed a bit in bumpers for Jack Barber and similar story in 2 hurdles for new yard since returning from a long absence. Will almost certainly need to up his game if he’s to seriously trouble Buckhorn Rocco, though.
4 EMBERSCOMBE (IRE)
DECLARED RUNNERS 4 2022: BLUFFMEIFYOUCAN 5 11 5 Sean Houlihan 33-1 (Susan Gardner) 6 ran
Probable S.P’s: 1-4 Buckhorn Rocco (GB), 9-2 Earth King (IRE), 40-1 Rapid River (IRE), 66-1 Emberscombe (IRE)
This should be plain sailing for BUCKHORN ROCCO who has achieved much more than his 3 rivals here having reached the frame in a couple of novices this year

PLAY SMARTER
Given his consistent overall record RADDON TOP can probably be forgiven his slightly disappointing run last time and is taken to bounce straight back returned to the scene of his 4 wins under Rules. Gazette Bourgeoise is starting to look well treated and could pose a threat, while Samuel Jackson is also respected as a former winner of this race

Emergency Evacuation
Whilst we always endeavour to take appropriate steps to ensure your safety, comfort and enjoyment, an incident may occur which is beyond our control and it is, therefore, important that you are aware of how we intend to look after you in the event of an emergency. We employ Safety Officials whose job it is to ensure your safety In the event of a situation which requires a partial or full evacuation of the Stands, announcements will be broadcast and the Officials will undertake the responsibility of ushering you to a place of safety; it is essential that you follow their instructions. Please take your belongings with you and proceed out of the enclosure quickly and quietly under their guidance.
The evacuation procedures have been carefully planned to lead you to a safe area. It may give you peace of mind if you pre-plan and agree a meeting place with your party, just in case you become separated. If we are unable to re-occupy the Stands for any reason, you will be advised immediately, and, if it is considered safe to do so, you will be invited to return to your car or coach.
These are precautionary arrangements which we trust will not be required.
However, in the event of an emergency please remember; Take your belongings with you and under direction of the officials proceed quickly and quietly to the safe area then to your agreed rendezvous point or to your car or coach.

Racehorse and 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 ensure that racecourses deliver these standards. In addition Exeter Racecourse employs three 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.
