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: Happy Birthday John, The Racing Partnership, Sky Sports Racing, Talk Tidy Marketing, St Austell Brewery, Newtonabbotracing.com, Attheraces. 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 continue to invest as much Executive Prize Money as we can over this year, and we will try to maintain those levels 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. We have increased all race values in Class 5 Hurdles from £4,300 to £6,500. Class 5 Chases from £4,600 to £7,000. Class 4 Hurdles from £5,800 to £7,500. Class 4 Chases from £6,600 to £8,000. Class 3 Hurdles from £9,100 to £11,000. Class 3 Chases from £10,800 to £12,000. 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. 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 11 May - First Race 1.00pm Wednesday 25 May - First Race 1.10pm The meeting on 11 May we will have one race live on ITV. Best wishes

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.

HANG IN THERE’s jumping has often been a weakness over hurdles, but he possesses the most ability in this 3-runner field and should be tough to beat if able to avoid errors. Wild Max was also above average as a hurdler and presents the only obvious danger. Treacys Jim is out of his depth.

PLAY SMARTER
All arrive with something to prove but ERITAGE is a C&D winner so could bounce back here in a tongue tie for the first time. The 8-y-o has been below form on his last 2 starts dropped back in trip, but he remains unexposed at around this distance and can return to form. He is preferred to Falco Blitz who is back over fences, while Rouge Vif needs the drop in grade to spark a major turnaround.

MALINA JAMILA boasts some good bumper form, notably her fourth in the Grade 2 Nickel Coin at Aintree last month, so she’s an appealing candidate now switched to hurdles and edges the vote over the penalised Largy G, who won a well-contested event at Newbury last time.

TORONTO took a big step forward when scoring on his second hurdle start at Wincanton 24 days ago and looks capable of defying a penalty on that evidence. Duke of Bronte has rejoined Rod Millman and will find this much less demanding than Aintree, while Greystoke probably has a bigger effort in him if he can learn to settle.

PLAY SMARTER
QUICK DRAW remains with the potential to improve beyond this mark as a hurdler, and having been well-backed over fences on debut for Nicky Henderson last time, he’s one to keep on the right side returning to his preferred sphere. The Macon Lugnatic can pose the biggest danger, though Emitom possesses the ability to outclass these if regaining any sort of form.

ROMAIN DE SENAM has been working his way back to form in his 3 starts for David Pipe and is now racing off his last winning mark. The 10-y-o ran well when runner-up at Uttoxeter 4 days ago so can quickly go one better.

PLAY SMARTER
SWEET NIGHTINGALE is taken to continue her progress and make her second start in a handicap a winning one. The 5-y-o took another step forward when third at Exeter behind David Pipe’s Kolisi, who has gone on to complete a hat-trick, and the step up in distance should suit. Karannelle also bumped into Kolisi on her last start so is respected, while Triple Nickle is interesting having dropped in the weights.
