WEDNESDAY 3 DECEMBER 2025
WELCOME TO
On behalf of the team at Haydock Park Racecourse we would like to extend a very warm welcome to you for our CopyBet Christmas Afternoon Raceday on Wednesday 3rd December.
As we enter the final month of the year, it’s a pleasure to welcome you to an afternoon of high-quality racing, winter atmosphere, and the unmistakable Haydock Park experience. Whether you are a long-standing Annual Member, a regular racegoer, or joining us for the very first time, we’re delighted to have you with us.
Today’s card brings together a competitive programme featuring both emerging prospects, such as those on display in the The Safer Gambling With CopyBet “Chasing Excellence” Beginners Chase at 1.08pm, and familiar favourites, including those lining up in the CopyBet Early Payout On Top Football Veterans Handicap Chase at 2.08pm Thanks to sponsors CopyBet and FDL Packaging Group for supporting the day, we are delighted to welcome you here and for your generous support.
I would like to extend my congratulations to Dan and Harry Skelton, plus owner Robert Kirkland for winning a brilliant recent renewal of the Grade One Betfair Chase with Grey Dawning a few weeks ago. It is a race and performance that will live long in the memory and we would like to wish connections of the horse the best of luck for the remainder of the season
With the festive season almost upon us, I hope today provides a brilliant start to December—full of great sport, good company, and perhaps even a winner or two. As a reminder, we return on Saturday 20th December for The Betfred Tommy Whittle Chase Day before rounding off the year with The Betfred Last Fling on Tuesday 30th December. We hope to welcome you back to these brilliant fixtures either side of Christmas
Thank you for joining us today and enjoy your day at Haydock Park

FAT HARRY hasn’t looked back since sent chasing and is fancied to make light of a 7lb weights rise for his comfortable Newcastle victory and go 3-3 in this sphere. Irish raider Hitthehayson is feared most on the back of his taking fencing debut success at Fairyhouse, although hat-trick seeking Jaipaletemps can also play a part. Olly Murphy’s Dangerous Touch can build on his encouraging Lingfield fourth and have a say too along with Ryan Potter’s new recruit Carrigmoorna Rowan.
