WELCOME TO
As we welcome you to the July Course for our first Summer Raceday of the season, it is a pleasure to return to this unique and much-loved setting for an evening that combines thrilling racing with outstanding live entertainment.
There is something truly special about summer evenings here - competitive action on the track, a relaxed atmosphere in the enclosures, and the picturesque surroundings of the July Course providing the perfect backdrop. Tonight’s card promises an exciting programme of racing as connections look to make their mark during the height of the Flat season
We are delighted that today’s racing is sponsored by Zyn, whose valued support is greatly appreciated. You can visit their stand near the Premier 2 entrance throughout the summer We would also like to thank Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai, for their continued sponsorship of our Owners’ and Trainers’ facility.
After the final race, the excitement continues as we welcome the charttopping band Five to the stage. Their live performance is set to provide a fantastic soundtrack to the evening and a memorable close to our first summer fixture.
Whether you are here for the racing, the music, or to enjoy a summer evening with friends and family, we hope you have a wonderful time with us at the July Course. Tickets for the July Festival next month are available to buy on our website
On behalf of everyone at Newmarket Racecourses, I wish all owners, trainers and jockeys the very best of luck this evening, and thank you for joining us for what promises to be a superb start to our summer season

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.
Spring has sprung and now is the best time to think about open top motoring and getting the wind in your hair.
Prestige
We are always updating and renewing our stock so have something for everyone. With our personalised level of service, you will feel comfortable finding the right car or project no matter what your level of knowledge, budget or taste – quite simply it’s a breath of fresh air.

Hood worn first time by No 8. Blinkers worn first time by No 6. Stewards Note: DRIFTSAWAY: Following its run on 28/8/2025 it was reported that the horse stopped quickly GREAT MATES: Following its run on 11/2/2026 it was reported that the horse ran too free.
Probable S.P’s: 4-1 Best Rate (GB), 5-1 Great Mates (GB), 6-1 Al Karrar (IRE), Physique (IRE), 10-1 Noble Guest (GB), 12-1 Fifty Nifty (IRE), 14-1 Longlai (FR), Benacre (IRE), 16-1 Drifts Away (GB)
It’s interesting that connections have persisted with AL KARRAR, who could be worth another chance on just his second start in a turf handicap He’s narrowly preferred to Best Rate, who should make a bold bid in a competitive event, while Great Mates looks interesting on first start for a new yard

PLAY SMARTER
HARD TO BELIEVE won a Wolverhampton novice that has worked out really well and he’s given another chance despite failing to meet expectations at York last time. Handicap newcomers Outflank and Outback Legend are feared most in a race where it’s difficult to rule any of the sextet out.

PLAY SMARTER
Unbeaten in 2 starts as a juvenile, FORT ROCK ran well despite showing signs of lingering greenness when third on return here 7 weeks ago That form has been well advertised since and he can prove his mark an exploitable one nowequippedwith first-time cheekpieces. Stem looked all at sea on the track at Epsom 2 weeks ago but his 3-y-o form is an ongoing recommendation and he can bounce back, with Spell Master and Exposure another pair to note

SAFE HARBOR has taken her form up a notch since fitted with cheekpieces and is fancied to gain a deserved breakthrough success at the chief expense of Ed Walker’s handicap debutant Hurricane Laughter who appeals as a likely improver here. Mimi’s Magic and Guest House also need factoring in.

CONDITIONS OF ENTRY TO RACECOURSE

At Newmarket Racecourses we believe racing should be enjoyed by anyone and everyone. And one thing is certainly true, the more relaxed and comfortable we feel, the more likely we are to have a great time. So that’s why we’ve created one very simple piece of guidance, to come “dressed to feel your best”.
We’re all unique, and no more so than in our sense of style and comfort. For some, wearing a nice sweatshirt, pair of jeans and clean trainers is what makes them feel confident and at-ease. For others, they might prefer to turn heads with a sharp suit or glamorous dress and high heels, particularly for one of our big race meetings
But whatever your tastes, the most important thing when choosing your outfit is, of course, comfort and confidence. So wear what feels right for you and will keep you feeling your best from start to finish, whatever the weather. Here’s some other useful tips and advice for making sure your time with us is as memorable as possible.
Fancy dress can often add colour and fun to our racedays, but please avoid inappropriate or offensive outfits, as anything deemed vulgar or derogatory may be refused entry.
We love other sports as much as anyone, but showing allegiance to a favourite club can sometimes appear antagonistic So, to keep things simple, please refrain from wearing team kits when attending one of our racedays.
Only individuals in possession of a valid betting badge and occupying an authorised pitch are entitled to lay bets in the course of their business. Any individuals found contravening these conditions will be evicted. Members of the public may not use two-way radios, scanning receivers etc, for any purpose at the racecourse.
EMERGENCY NOTICE
In an event of an emergency please be guided by our security stewards and by messages you will see and hear around the racecourse We would advise that you keep your personal belongings with you at all times. In the event of an evacuation please do as requested by Newmarket Racecourses Management and security staff They will direct you to a safe place. Do not attempt to regain access to buildings

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 Newmarket Racecourses employs a minimum of 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 involving 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
