Newmarket Racecard - Friday 18th August

WELCOME TO

A warm welcome to the July Course for our final Newmarket Night, starring Olly Murs.

After a storming set in 2021, we’re delighted to welcome Olly back to the July Course. His previous six albums and subsequent sold-out tours have all been so successful. The stats speak for themselves: 6 multi-platinum albums, 4 #1 UK albums, 4 #1 UK singles, 6 million Spotify monthly listeners, 800 million Youtube views and 1.8 million tour tickets sold. We’re looking forward to a great night.

Please do connect with us throughout the night on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram by tagging us, using the hashtag #newmarketnights. We love seeing your pictures and we’re always happy to share our favourites as the evening unfolds.

IwouldliketotakethisopportunitytothankEliteUniversal,SourceOneConsulting, Race & Stay and LB Group for their generous sponsorship of this evening’s card. We welcome them and their guests, and hope they have an enjoyable time with us.

Looking ahead, next weekend features our final racedays at the July Course, where we culminate with the famous Newmarket Town Plate. This historic race has been run here at the Home of Horseracing since 1666. The race is run over a stamina-sapping three-and-three-quarter miles, and it is certainly not for the faint hearted! Tickets are still available for all remaining 2023 fixtures at both the July Course and the Rowley Mile, via www.thejockeyclub.co.uk/newmarket

Across the season, we would like to thank the European Breeders Fund for their contributions to prize money and Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai for their continued sponsorship of our Owners and Trainers facility.

I do hope you have a very enjoyable evening with us, and I wish all the horses and their connections the very best of luck

Warm wishes

Sophie Able

Newmarket Racecourses and International Director

OTHER USEFUL DETAILS

BETTING EXPLAINED

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.

‘Each-way’ is for your horse to come first or to be placed. It’s two bets, so ‘£2 each-way’ = £4 total bet.

Decide the amount – or stake – you are comfortable to bet.

Place your bet. There are different places to bet on course; The Tote, racecourse bookmakers, betting shop or online. Each option offers a different experience.

Collect. Once ‘Weighed-in’ has been announced, present your betting slip and collect any winnings.

As a leading distributor of horse feed, bedding and supplements in the greater GCC area, I am once again immensely proud to support the Jockey Club at Newmarket Racecourses for the 2023 season.

Newmarket is credited as being where thoroughbred racing first started which is why so many from every corner of the world assemble and appreciate The Rowley Mile and The July Course.

As ever, the enthusiasm of Sophie Able and her team at Newmarket translates into a top class service for Owners, Trainers, Jockeys and Stable Staff and for that we are deeply grateful.

I would like to wish all those visiting Newmarket throughout the 2023 season, the very best of luck.

Have a wonderful day at the races today.

PLAY SMARTER

If able to build on his recent breakthrough success over 7f here, WHERE’S FREDDY may well follow up off just 3lb higher with this step up to a mile likely to work in his favour There are several plausible alternatives in a competitive handicap for the grade, with Southwold and Lordsbridge Girl, who is 2-3 when ridden by Jamie Spencer, both greatly respected. The consistent Coloane and down-in-the-weights Oh Herberts Reign are others to consider

SUDDEN AMBUSH didn’t have anything to spare when scoring at Windsor last time but he’s an upwardly-mobile 3yo up against mostly more exposed types, so he’s fancied to go in again. Bopedro and Repertoire are both likely to feature, particularly if the leaders go too quick.
