AFTERNOON RACEDAY THURSDAY 10 FEBRUARY 2022 Official Racecard £3.00
THE JOCKEY CLUB WELCOMES YOU
Welcome to Huntingdon for what promises to be a fantastic afternoon of racing featuring seven races, the highlight of which is our most prestigious hurdle race, the Listed Urban Logistics Sidney Banks Memorial Novices’ Hurdle. We would like to thank Urban Logistics for their generous sponsorship of all of today’s racing, their support is greatly appreciated. The Urban Logistics Sidney Banks Memorial Novices’ Hurdle is named after Cheltenham Festival-winning trainer Sidney Banks, who was based locally in Bedfordhire, and was first run in 1976, three years after his death. Sidney was a Chairman of Huntingdon Racecourse and his son, Michael, followed in his footsteps, while also training seven winners here. Both Sidney and Michael would have been very proud of how important this race has become. Recent winners have included Keeper Hill, Vinndication and Shishkin, who has subsequently become one of Britain’s best two-mile chasers. Last year’s race (which was staged at Market Rasen) was won by Donald McCain’s Minella Drama, who won a Grade Two chase on his most recent start. Today’s race looks to be another excellent renewal and we hope another star will emerge. We are extremely grateful for your patience while we work towards having all areas of the racecourse back in full operation and we are optimistic that this process is nearing completion. Gurneys and Lentons bars are open as indoor facilities, with a number of outdoor food concession units for you to choose from. Please consider wearing a face covering in indoor and enclosed spaces where social distancing is not possible. QR codes remain located around the racecourse to enable you to check in using the NHS COVID-19 app, should you wish to. I wish all of today’s participants the very best of luck and hope that you have a wonderful time with us at Huntingdon.

PLAY SMARTER
PLANNED PARADISE has proved most progressive since switching to handicap company, so a further 5lb rise in the weights seems unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Cornicello shaped well on his first start in handicaps at Taunton and that form has been boosted since, while others to consider are Flamenco de Kerser and Astroman.

PLAY SMARTER
A case can be made for all of these, but the most persuasive one is for HUNNY MOON who remains unexposed over fences and can return in style after her break and follow up her Market Rasen victory. Fellow last-time scorers Whatsdastory and Eleanor Bob should ensure Fergal O’Brien’s progressive mare doesn’t have things all her own way though and can chase her home in that order.

JUDEX LEFOU finally put it all together as he opened his account at Exeter last week. He’s still not had much racing over fences and remains well treated on the pick of his hurdles form under a penalty. He can follow up if in the same mood. Rizzardo and Lots of Luck, who were first and second in the last running of this handicap in 2020, are feared.

Not disgraced in Ascot Gr. 2 thereafter and possibilities up in trip.

PLAY SMARTER
Five really promising types in opposition including ELLE EST BELLE. A winner over hurdles at Newbury on her penultimate start, she was far from disgraced when fourth behind Jonbon at Ascot latest where likely a stronger gallop would have suited. She gets the narrow vote, with Wonderwall and Harbour Lake possibly emerging as the chief dangers.

TIMEFORM VIEW Bumper winner who has made a good start over hurdles this term, scoring twice in comfortable fashion since a promising debut. Jumping was a bit scrappy last time, but his opening mark looks lenient. TFRHHHHH BHA123 DECLARED RUNNERS 5 Tongue Strap worn by No. 4. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No. 3. Running for the first time since Wind Surgery No. 1. Stewards Note: WILDE ABOUT OSCAR: Following its run on 11/12/2021 it was reported that the horse lost a shoe. FIX SUN: Following its run on 22/8/2021 it was reported that the trainer could not explain the poor run. Probable S.P’s: 11-8 Thunder Rock (IRE), 11-4 Dorking Boy (GB), 6-1 Mengli Khan (IRE), 9-1 Wilde About Oscar (IRE), Fix Sun (FR)
PLAY SMARTER
Given that THUNDER ROCK comfortably saw off the Lanzarote winner in receipt of 6lb a couple of starts back, a mark of 123 looks rather lenient, so he’s worth chancing to land the hat-trick up against some more-exposed types. Dorking Boy is a threat arriving on the back of a cosy win at Taunton, while the classy Wilde About Oscar could bounce back after a short break, so he’s also considered.

PLAY SMARTER
Cases can be made for several but this significant step up in trip could be just what LINCOLN LYN requires for Tom Gretton’s mare to open her account so she’s afforded the vote. Manothepeople shaped like a stayer on his hurdling debut so he’s feared on handicap debut with the extra distance sure to suit, ahead of Optimistic Bias and Trixster.

IMPORTANT NOTICES Admission & Conditions Of Entry
Emergency Evacuation
• Entry to the racecourse is subject to the right of the Racecourse Executive to refuse to admit and/or to expel, without prior notice, any person whose behaviour is considered to be unruly or unacceptable or is a disqualified person.
Huntingdon Racecourse has significantly enhanced Safety and Security measures this year to enhance your safety, comfort and enjoyment of the day. However, an incident may occur which is beyond our control and it is important that you are aware of how we intend to look after you in the event of an emergency. As part of our safety management, we have employed professionally trained and experienced stewards and you will see them at various points throughout the racecourse. In the event of a situation, which requires partial or full evacuation of the stands or racecourse, announcements will be broadcast and stewards will undertake the responsibility of ushering you to a place of safety; it is essential that you follow their instructions. Please take your immediate belongings with you and proceed out of the area quickly and calmly with the guidance of the stewards. The evacuation procedures have been carefully planned to lead you to a safe area. Should it be necessary to evacuate the course itself, there will be two main options; firstly to return to your vehicles if safe to do so and leave via the main entrance. Secondly, should it not be safe to return to your vehicles, you will be requested to leave via an emergency evacuation gate, either to the assembly Point behind the Clubhouse, overflow to the picnic car park or if both these areas are compromised then to use the Centre of the Course, where you will receive further instructions. It may give you peace of mind if you pre plan and agree a meeting place, just in case you become separated from your party. The above is precautionary only and we trust that the procedures will never be required. However, in the event of an emergency, remember; take your belongings with you under the directions of the Stewards, proceed quickly and calmly to the safe area.

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 ensure that racecourses delivers these standards. In addition Huntingdon 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 vinvolving 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.
Photography Racegoers please note it is not permitted to take photographs on racecourses except within the areas normally open to the public. Amateur photographers must ensure that they do not intrude upon areas used by professional photographers. Flash photography is not permitted in any circumstances.
