WELCOME Welcome to Kelso Racecourse for a bumper eight-race programme on Wishing Well Chase Day. The £20,000 feature race is sponsored by Paxtons the farm machinery dealership and has attracted an fascinating field of eight. As always, we are extremely grateful to each of our race sponsors who, in addition to Paxtons, include the friends and family of the late Ian Anderson, Racing TV, and friends of the late Graeme Todd, for their contribution to today’s prize funds. Prior to the runners for the first race entering the Parade Ring, there will be a minute’s silence to mark Remembrance Day. We are pleased to have representatives of the Kings Own Scottish Borderers with us today, to assist with the laying of a wreath in the Winners Enclosure, and their band who will help us to set an appropriate tone for the day. We would like to thank the connections of all the horses that are running at Kelso today: the racehorse owners, jockeys, trainers and stable staff. We hope, win, lose or draw, that you have an enjoyable afternoon. Today’s fixture will be the fifth of the season. It’s amazing how quickly time passes. But fear not, we now have fixture dates for 2024 and Annual Membership packages are available at just £160 for the calendar year from the Raceday Office at the main entrance.

How to Bet 1. Select your horse and note its name and racecard number. 2. Choose your bet – ‘To win’ or ‘each-way’ are the two most common types: • ‘To win’ is for your horse to come first. • ‘Each-way’ is when you place two bets in one: one for your horse to come first, the other for it to be placed. Therefore £2 each-way = £4 total bet. • What qualifies as a ‘place’ depends on the number of runners: between two and four runners - first place only; between five and seven runners - first and second place; eight runners and over - first three places; 16 runners and over (handicaps only) - first four places. • The place part of the bet will be paid out at a fraction of the odds, usually a quarter or a fifth - this varies depending on the bookmaker, so check if you are unsure! 3. Decide the amount, also known as the stake that you are comfortable to bet. 4. Choose your outlet and place your bet e.g. “£2 win on number three” or “£2 each-way on number six”. 5. If your horse has won, wait to hear “weighed in” over the public address system and then go and collect any winnings! 6. Got so swept up you forgot to collect your cash? There are details of how to collect winning slips after the raceday on our terms and conditions page near the back of the racecard. Please gamble responsibly. For more information visit www.gambleaware.co.uk

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

Jonathon Bewley J Br B g Imperial Monarch (IRE) - Dendelady (IRE) George Bewley, Colby T O Mr Alan Udale Lloyd Ltd S B Mr Gerard Hickey TIMEFORM VIEW Point winner who scored twice over hurdles at Hexham last autumn. Creditable efforts both completed starts in this sphere and, with his ﬁnal start of last season best overlooked, he can’t be ruled out on his return here. TFRHHHII BHA113

Craig Nichol J Br B g Al Namix (FR) - Abeona de Clermont (FR) Rose Dobbin, Alnwick T O Mr Will Ramsay Affordable Art Fair S B S.C.E.A. Elevage de Clermont TIMEFORM VIEW Won twice at Perth for Gordon Elliott last season and posted much his best effort for this yard when third of 6 in handicap chase (10/1) at this course (21.6f, good) 52 days ago. Claims if building on that. TFRHHHII BHA110

Ross Chapman J Br B g Policy Maker (IRE) - Thellya d’Arc (FR) Stuart Coltherd, Selkirk T O Mr A. McCormack Bell Rural Solutions S B Mme M. J. Augereau & Mr R. Terriere TIMEFORM VIEW Off the mark at Newcastle in January and backed that up with decisive victory at Sedgeﬁeld (17f) the following month. Back to that sort of form when runner-up at Carlisle (15.9f) latest and remains fairly treated. TFRHHHHI BHA106

Emma Smith-Chaston (3) J Br B g Arcadio (GER) - Inniskeen (IRE) Sandy Forster, Kelso T O Dont Mind If We Do B Joseph Molloy TIMEFORM VIEW Seen to good advantage (held up in a strongly-run race) when scoring over C&D in March and was never involved (from 10lb out of the handicap) behind Bollingerandkrug when last seen in May.

McManus B Mrs Rita Kent TIMEFORM VIEW Dropped in grade and with cheekpieces back on, he won for the ﬁrst time over hurdles since 2018 at Cartmel (22.1f, good to soft) in July.

Dylan Johnston (7) J Br B g Arctic Cosmos (USA) - Golden Moro (IRE) Rose Dobbin, Alnwick T O The Friday Lions 2 Hazelrigg Racing S B Maurice Lane TIMEFORM VIEW Didn’t kick on after winning over C&D on return last season, looking far from a natural when sent chasing in the spring. Back over hurdles here but others still preferred. TFRHHIII BHA108

Ryan Mania J Br B g Morozov (USA) - Longwhitejemmy (IRE) Sandy Thomson, Greenlaw T O Mr and Mrs M McPherson and Mrs Q Thomson Sandy Thomson Racing S B Andrew Pierce TIMEFORM VIEW Stepped up on previous efforts and overcame a pace bias when winning 13-runner handicap hurdle at this course (20.9f, good to soft, 12/1) a year ago. Not seen since but has the potential for better. TFRHHHHI BHA108

Craig Nichol J Br B or Br g Valirann (FR) - Godlylady (IRE) Donald Whillans, Hawick T O Mousetrap Racing Embroidery Elite Ltd S B Ronnie O’Neill TIMEFORM VIEW Latest win in hurdle at Carlisle in April. 3/1, good second of 5 in handicap hurdle at Hexham (23.3f, heavy) 28 days ago, sticking to task.

Edward Austin (5) J Br Gr g Shirocco (GER) - Brantingham Breeze Harriet Graham & Gary Rutherford, Jedburgh T O Rutherford Racing B Swanbridge Bloodstock Limited TIMEFORM VIEW Back-to-back winner of staying handicaps in February/March 2022 but little impact last season and out of the weights on return.

Stewards Note: TEESCOMPONENTSTRIG: Following its run on 14/12/2021 it was reported that the horse hung left handed late-on.

MONOCHROMIX has a solid proﬁle and shaped as if he’d come on for the run when second at Hexham on return, so he’s fancied to open his account up in trip. PLAY SMARTER Shoeshine Boy is an obvious danger and Pavlik should feature if tuned up after a year off. TIMEFORM PREDICTION: 1.MONOCHROMIX (FR) 2.SHOESHINE BOY (IRE) 3.PAVLIK (IRE)

SAFETY INFORMATION A day at Kelso Racecourse should be great fun for everyone; nobody wants an injury or an incident to spoil their day. So, when push comes to shove, we need to make sure that there isn’t any pushing or shoving. The racecourse team prepares carefully for each event and we take every precaution to ensure that the site is as safe as is practical. However, we also need some help from you – to take responsibility for your own safety and to respect the safety and comfort of those around you. With this in mind, we’ve compiled a brief list of precautions that we’d like all visitors to consider: Alcohol & Substance Abuse Fortunately very few accidents occur at Kelso Racecourse, but those that do are most likely to be relatively minor incidents involving someone who has had too much to drink. Quite simply: you’ll be safer if you drink less alcohol. On the rare occasion that we receive a customer complaint, it’s quite likely to be linked to the behaviour of someone who’s had one too many. So please drink responsibly and encourage your friends to stay within their limits. Any incident involving substance abuse will be dealt with by Police Scotland. Slips, Trips, Falls We’ve commenced a series of developments at the racecourse and we’re gradually making the site more accessible for all, with smoother surfaces and ramps where we have differences in gradient. Please note that the site is not flat and there may be differences in levels, particularly between old surfaces, and surfaces which have recently been renewed. Please take care of yourselves and mind where you walk. Don’t try to run faster than your legs can go, even if you think your bookmaker might be packing away for the day. Fences, Walls & Barriers The fences, walls and temporary barriers located on the racecourse are intended to segregate people into specific areas. This may include segregating people from horses or people from sensitive or hazardous equipment. Please do not attempt to climb over, sit on or stand on any barriers – regardless of whether they appear to be permanent or temporary features – they are not designed to take a person’s weight. Horses Horses are big and run very fast; hopefully yours will run fastest of all. Please pay attention when in close proximity to the horses: stay on the public side of any barriers (close to the track or horse walk areas) and do not sit on or lean over barriers near to the horses. The running rails are designed to encourage the horses to stay on the track – but they will not withstand a horse’s weight if they hit them, nor a jockey’s if he is thrown over them – so be prepared to move if a horse is behaving erratically. Fires We’re proud of Kelso’s reputation for providing a warm welcome and the unique feature provided by the real fires that we light in the listed Grandstand and in the log-burning braziers surrounding the Parade Ring. Our Fires have no brains – so please use your own. Fires are hot and there is a danger of burning yourself if you touch the fire or the surrounding metalwork. Please do not put anything in the fires or fireplaces. Children We welcome many children to Kelso races. Although we don’t consider them to be particularly dangerous, we do ask that all children are appropriately supervised by a responsible adult – who should be particularly mindful of all the considerations above.
