Horse’s

Each horse has been given a star rating, these are deﬁned below:

HHHHH Selected to win the race

HHHHI Good chance of being placed.

HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims.

HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope

HIIII Can be given little or no chance.

HANDICAPS

Once a horse’s ability has been assessed by the Official BHA Handicapper it is given an official rating. This is an assessment that determines how much weight it shall carry compared to the other runners. In simple terms a horse rated 100 carries 2lbs less than a horse rated 102. A rating over 130 is well above average and the winner of the Cheltenham Gold Cup is normally rated over 160 Most handicap races have an upper rating limit to encourage runners of similar ability to take part and make a competitive race e.g 0-110, and a 28lb weight-range

HURDLE RACES

One Fit Padded Hurdle: The ‘One Fit’ design is a modified hurdle frame with a custom fitting close-cell foam pad replacing the traditional birch. The hurdle was developed with the objective of reducing both the faller rate and the risk of injury as the result of a fall. They are 3ft high and placed in the ground at an attractive angle to encourage horses to jump them fluently

At Perth there are five flights of Hurdles on the course Eight are jumped in a two mile race, nine in a race over two miles and five furlongs and eleven in a race over three miles.

STEEPLE CHASE

Steeplechase fences are made from hardwood frames stuffed tightly with birch When making a fence the birch is packed in at a height of approximately 6ft, then cut down to a maximum height of 4ft 6”. There are ﬁve ‘plain fences’ on the course at Perth and two ‘open ditches’ An Open Ditch is the same height as a plain fence but has a small ditch in front of the fence to make them a bigger test for the horse and rider

At Perth there are two open ditches on the course, the first fence in the straight and the first down the back straight. Perth is one of the last remaining racecourses to have a Water Jump, this is situated in front of the main Grandstand and is much smaller than the other fences, with a 6ft wide water jump behind a small birch fence. There are eight steeplechase fences on the course Twelve are jumped in a race over two miles, fifteen over two miles and four furlongs and nineteen in races over three miles.

WEIGHT FOR AGE RACES

These races are designed to provide a fair and competitive contest before a horse is allocated a weight, according to his ability, to run in a Handicap These races are therefore normally for young horses aged from 3 to 5-y-o. As a 5-y-o is deemed to be stronger than a 3-y-o he/she will be made a to carry a little more weight. Once a horse has won a weight for age race he/she will be asked to carry a ‘penalty’; this is normally an additional 7lbs. Once a horse has won or run three times in a Weight for Age race he can be assessed and given a weight in a Handicap Race.

Obvious chance if he doesn’t get too far back.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

ABANDONMENT POLICY

In the event of racing being abandoned before the ﬁrst race has been run, all ticket holders should retain tickets Information regarding refunds or transfers will be posted to pre-paid tickets holders within seven days of the abandonment; all other applications should be made to the racecourse office within the same period. In the event of racing being abandoned after the ﬁrst race has been run, all badge holders should retain their passes. Refunds will not be made unless at the discretion of the management.

ADMISSION POLICY

The Management reserves the right to refuse admission to, or expel any person from, the racecourse without assigning a reason for doing so, and does not accept any responsibility for loss or damage to persons or to their property

CASH MACHINES

A cash machine is available within the Grandstand Enclosure by the Main Entrance and The Barn.

HORSE WELFARE

Racing’s top priority is the safety and welfare of horse and rider People join the racing industry because they share a genuine love for horses. Like most sports, racing carries risks, however, we work to ensure that no death or injury occurs which could have been prevented. Horses have the right to a decent and fulﬁlling life, both during their racing career and afterwards. We are committed to minimising risks, dealing quickly and humanely with injuries, and maintaining the highest possible quality of life for the animals in our care. It is now standard practice for screens to be erected round any horse receiving veterinary attention on the course This does not reﬂect the severity of the injury but allows the vet some privacy in which to administer treatment and provides the horse with a calm environment in which to make a recovery Please therefore do not assume the worst if you see screens erected around a fallen horse

NEW CLAIMING PROCEDURES

The procedures for Claiming and Selling Races have changed. No Claims will be accepted on the racecourse No additional period is allowed for Friendly Claims. Registered Owners, Licensed and Permitted trainers may claim by telephone, to Weatherbys on 01933 303080

Such claims must be made within 15 minutes of the start of the race A BHA Security Code is required (to apply, contact Weatherbys on 01933 440077). No premium will be payable in the event of unopposed Friendly Claims For more information, please ask the Director of Racing.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Racegoers may take photographs for private purposes Under no circumstances may photographs taken on the racecourse be used for publication.

Flash photography is essentially dangerous where horses are involved. You are asked not to use flash photography anywhere in the grandstand enclosure and particularly near the winner’s enclosure.

RACECOURSE SAFETY MESSAGE

In the event of an emergency at the racecourse, all racegoers will be notiﬁed via safety messages over the racecourse PA System.

RADIOS AND MOBILE TELEPHONES

STABLE STAFF LIAISON

THE LAST CLOUD rather threw away a winning opportunity at Catterick in February but has the services of Brian Hughes this time and this isn’t a deep maiden hurdle He’s worth another chance, with talented Flat performer Chichester a big danger, particularly if the market vibes are positive, Kinbara Hills also warrants consideration.

THE RESULT

HORSE WELFARE

It is now standard practice for screens to be erected around any horse receiving veterinary attention on the course This does not reﬂect the severity of the injury, but allows the vet some privacy in which to administer treatment and provides the horse with a calm environment in which to make a recovery Please therefore do not assume the worst if you see screens erected around a fallen horse

The market should reveal plenty here but the vote goes to Fergal O’Brien’s newcomer CONNELLS CROSS who is bred to be well above average and hails from a yard among the winners. Irish challengers Zhanma Enki and Not For Passin both appeal on paper too and can chase home the selection in that order
