NEWBURYRACECOURSE.CO.UK

Good afternoon and a very warm welcome to the second day of the BetVictor March Opening Weekend. We have another competitive afternoon of Jump racing for you including the BetVictor Greatwood Gold Cup Handicap Chase and our thanks go to our title sponsor, BetVictor for retaining the ‘Greatwood’ title. We also extend our thanks to Irish Thoroughbred Marketing for their continued support. I would like to thank all our racegoers for their patience while the refurbishment of the Long Room Bar and Kitchen on the first floor of the Berkshire Stand takes place. It will be out of action until the Spring, and we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. If you would like to see what the planned changes will look like, the team on the Ground Floor reception will be able to show you the revised layout which we are very excited about. Annual Members will continue to be able to access the Lockinge and Carnarvon Rooms during this period. Last year we launched some new hospitality areas, including the popular Lounge 303 which offers a shared hospitality space with fantastic views overlooking the course and the action. This is also getting a new look and will be ready for Dubai Duty Free Spring Trials weekend which this year takes place over Easter on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 April and we’ve got two days of action packed family fun on offer, which starts with our Racing Experience Day. Importantly, Kids Under 18 are free across both days. Finally, thank you for choosing to spend your day with us. I hope you have an enjoyable and profitable afternoon and that we will see many of you again for our final two fixtures of the Jumps season on Friday 1 and Saturday 2 April.

How To Bet There are plenty of ways to bet at Newbury – you can either bet with the bookmakers in the ‘ring’ in front of the Grandstand and the Crafty Filly, at one of the many Totepool kiosks or in one of our Betfred Betting Shops, located on the ground ﬂoor of the Dubai Duty Free Grandstand and the Berkshire Stand. Here’s a step-by-step guide of what to do:

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.

Race Summary: SONG OF THE HUNTER failed to ﬁre in 2 chases for Tim Vaughan before Christmas but he did well over hurdles last season and might be worth chancing to make a successful return to the smaller obstacles for new trainer Harry Fry, with conﬁdence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Stormy Flight arrives at the top of his game and is feared most ahead of Bold Plan. 1-2-3: 1.SONG OF THE HUNTER (FR) 2.STORMY FLIGHT (IRE) 3.BOLD PLAN (IRE) FREE form for all British and Irish meetings is available online every day at timeform.com/free
