ON BEHALF OF THE DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS AND STAFF, I AM DELIGHTED TO WELCOME YOU TO NEWTON ABBOT RACECOURSE FOR OUR SECOND FIXTURE OF OUR 2022 SEASON. We would like to thank today’s race sponsors: The Racing Partnership, The Everybody Smile It’s Pete’s 70th Birthday (Pete Sheppard), The Our Green Corner Los Gigantes (Mike Bracegirdle), The Fudge Bassett Memorial, The Get Well Soon Big Jim (John Milton), The Good Luck Stuart and Thank You (Stuart Ranson) Following the end of the season last year, the racecourse has undergone changes and improvements aimed at enhancing the customer experience for all racegoers. This will continue throughout the season. We still have the NHS within the Course Enclosure which restricts some facilities, however the entrance price reflects that. The children’s play area is within the Course Enclosure as well as a picnic area. Drinking outside is allowed anywhere on the racecourse, however with the one criteria that no glass is to be taken outside. If you are in Silks or the private hospitality suites, you will have the option to ask for a plastic vessel. We will provide over £1million in prize money this year, and we will try to maintain that level in the coming years. We hope all Owners continue to support Newton Abbot Racecourse this year and our exciting race programme. We will continue to support grass roots racing. All my staff have been working in difficult circumstances over the few years and I am grateful to them for all their support. The groundstaff have been very busy since the end of racing last year. We have enlarged and resurfaced the track crossing and built new fences amongst other projects. We have moved our annual members to a larger room and created a new raceday office. On behalf of the Directors and staff we wish our head groundsman every success in his new post, we will miss him but thank him for 26 years of service to Newton Abbot Racecourse. For further information on any event at the racecourse for the rest of the year, please visit our website www.newtonabbotracing.com or call in at the general office today.
We wish all Owners and Trainers with a runner here today every success. Our next upcoming fixtures are: Wednesday 4 May - First Race 1.00pm. Wednesday 11 May - First Race 1.00pm Wednesday 25 May - First Race 1.10pm The meetings on 4 & 11 May will have one race on each day live on ITV. Best wishes

LAST MEETING REVIEW |FRIDAY 25TH MARCH 2022
The first meeting of 2022 on Friday 25 March consisted of six excellent races.
3
1
Our first race the 69 Club Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle saw 5/1shot How’s The Cricket beat 12 rivals. Travelling strongly and towards the rear he made good headway, chasing the leader going easily before 2 out. Shaken up at the last and pushed along he won cosily for jockey Bryan Carver and trainer Harry Fry. The second race of the day, the Happy Birthday Tosia and Lily Handicap Hurdle was won easily by West To The Bridge, trained by Dan Skelton and ridden by Mr Tristan Durrell. The 11/10 favourite who won by an impressive 10 lengths didn’t always jump with fluency but made all going clear before 2 out.
2
The Sky Sports Racing On Sky 415 Mares’ Maiden Hurdle saw 4 9 runners go to post. The 4/1 winner Whisky Express, the second winner on the day for trainer Harry Fry and ridden by Sean Bowen was held up behind the leaders but was then eased into second place 3 out. The 6 year-old mare was shaken up and pushed along to go clear when approaching the last to beat her rivals.
newtonabbotracing.com
6 - HYMAC (IRE)
The fourth race of the day, The Racing Partnership Handicap Chase was won by the 6/5f Le Cameleon, trained by Nick Williams and ridden by David Noonan. Despite the small field the finish was a very competitive one with second placed Magic Dancer challenging the winner before 2 out, only to be outpaced. Le Cameleon kept on strongly to take the prize. The penultimate race of the day, The William Hill Betting TV Handicap Chase had a surprise outcome with Vinnie The Hoddie making all to take the prize. Not seen since October when pulled up at Chepstow, the gelding had benefitted from a
drop down in trip to 2 miles 1/2 furlong and a return to fences. Keeping on well the second winner on the day for David Noonan beat the joint favourites the David Pipe trained Morgenstern and the Venitia Williams trained Commis D’Office along with his other 2 rivals, a tad cosily by 3 lengths. Our final race of the day, The Newton Abbot Open Maiden National Hunt Flat Race saw trainer, Harry Fry score a treble on the day with 2/1 favourite, Hymac who won the last by an impressive 4 lengths. Held up behind the leaders, he led going easily over 4 furlongs out, quickening and going clear despite drifting right on the run in. One to keep an eye on.

HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability. The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions. A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances). The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in nonhandicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating. For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating. Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

PLAY SMARTER
KNAPPERS HILL folded tamely for whatever reason in the EBF final at Sandown last time, but his previous form is strong, and this looks an excellent opportunity to resume winning ways. Clonmel-scorer Geni de La Cour may have more to offer for his new yard and is feared most ahead of the doubly-penalised Diligent.

Likeable veteran DELL’ ARCA clearly isn’t the force of old, but he’s dropped a long way in the weights and is taken to strike for his in-form stable. Fevertre will be a big threat if bouncing back to the sort of form he showed at Carlisle on his reappearance in November, while Chloe’s Court should find this slightly less demanding than Newbury.

POLA CHANCE: Following its run on 14/3/2022 it was reported that the horse erred badly at the seventh fence.
PRIORY WOOD could be interesting on his first go in a handicap chase. There was promise over hurdles and he’s dropped a bit further in the weights now sent over fences with Richie McLernon taking over from an amateur. Take the hint if he’s backed. Eros PLAY SMARTER and Forget You Not have experience over the larger obstacles and must be respected in this field. TIMEFORM PREDICTION: 1.PRIORY WOOD (IRE) 2.EROS (FR) 3.FORGET YOU NOT (FR)
