Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen and welcome to Yorkshire’s Garden Racecourse.

We’ve had a very quick turnaround after racing yesterday evening and there’s no time to rest on our laurels after today’s meeting either as we look ahead to racing next Wednesday evening.

Our feature race today is the Ripon Cathedral Handicap at 2.50. The Tim Easterby-trained Bollin Joan has three wins and two seconds to her credit here and she is sure to prove popular after her game success at York last time. There are plenty of possible contenders, however, including Heights of Abraham who ran out an impressive winner on his only previous visit here.

Our Goodbye Flys Stable Staff competition is hotting up and it’s great to see so much effort going into turning out the horses. There’s another 102 points to play for today so every race counts as the teams fight it out for the £5000 first prize.

We have music on the bandstand this afternoon from talented local artist Freddie Cleary. We hope you have a great day and we hope to welcome you back again soon.

Very best regards,

JAMES HUTCHINSON Managing Director

TODAY’S TIPS RACE

1

FORETELL lacks race experience but she is the first foal out of a dual Group 3-placed mare and it would be no surprise to see the daughter of Dark Angel go well this afternoon. Lady Bullet and The Twilight Lady both merit respect given their winning form, although the penalties they carry have to be a concern. Others to note are Family Ties and Pedro And The Bear.

WIN: FORETELL

RACE

2

SMART CONNECTION has not been beaten far in either start since winning at Lingfield in March and Alice Haynes’ five-year-old is likely to go well once again this afternoon. Distinction is a player based on his narrow defeat at Nottingham a couple of starts ago, while similar comments apply to Rum Runner. Others to note are El Jad and Seven For A Pound.

WIN: SMART CONNECTION

RACE

DANGER: WOODLANDS CHARM

KITEFLYER finished third in a hot renewal of the Wood Ditton at Newmarket before heading to Chepstow and opening his account. This may be no penalty kick for Sir Michael Stoute’s charge, but he can land the spoils. Shining Blue is feared most for the all-conquering Team Godolphin, while Field Of Honour could play a part on his racecourse debut.

WIN: KITEFLYER

RACE

DANGER: BOLLIN JOAN

A chance is taken with QUEEN OF COMEDY. The daughter of Kingman drops in trip for her handicap debut and she could make a mark of 66 look lenient.

WoodlandsCharmmakesobviousappealfollowingonfromherrecentC&Dsecond,while Better Half was successful at Chelmsford last November and she can pose a threat to all if transferring that ability to the turf.

WIN: QUEEN OF COMEDY

RACE

DANGER: BAILEYS DERBYDAY

SCOTTISH SUMMIT has been knocking on the door of late and smashed it open when scoring with plenty up his sleeve at Newcastle on Tuesday. A 4lb penalty shouldn’t inconvenience him and the evergreen nine-year-old can fend off the likely challenge of recent York scorer Bollin Joan. Pisanello is another who could have a say, though he will need to be more amenable upon leaving the stalls.

WIN: SCOTTISH SUMMIT

RACE

DANGER: DISTINCTION

A strong case can be made for most of these but preference is for SHAKE A LEG, who is only 2lb higher than when taking a competitive contest at Doncaster a month ago. Baileys Derbyday failed to fire at Hamilton last time but is a player based on his previous success at Chelmsford, while Wots The Wifi Code is another with claims.

WIN: SHAKE A LEG

RACE

DANGER: LADY BULLET

DANGER: SHINING BLUE

BIRKENHEAD was demoted to second by the stewards for his C&D run earlier this month, but it didn’t stop him from gaining compensation just a few days later.

Paul Midgley’s charge is turned out quickly once more and he can continue his fine form by winning again. The consistent Lost My Sock is likely to make his presence felt and Mokaman, who won at Musselburgh on his penultimate outing, completes the shortlist.

WIN: BIRKENHEAD

DANGER: MOKAMAN

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile one furlong 170 yard handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46-65. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

Horse

This is a one mile four furlong handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards who have been rated from 61-80. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than lower rated rivals. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130. lb

RACE DESCRIPTION

The aim of a handicap is to ensure a level playing field for all and this is achieved by allocating different weights to each of the runners based on what they have achieved on the racecourse so far. Each runner is given a rating usually ranging from around 30 at the lower end of the scale to roughly 130 for the Derby winner. This particular one mile one furlong 170 yard handicap has been designed for four-year-olds and upwards who have been rated between 71 and 90.

Horse

This is a six furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds who have been rated from 51 to 70.

To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have run at least three times in a Flat race in Britain, or have run in no more than two Flat races run in Britain and won at least one of them.

This rating then dictates the weight to be carried in a handicap. In simple terms a horse rated 65 in this particular race would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 60. st

Horse

This contest is another Novice Stakes, this time run over a distance of one mile.

There are a variety of reasons why the three-year-olds and upwards in this race are still light on experience. Stoutly bred horses are unlikely to be seen at their best over the shorter distances of their juvenile season whilst a setback or injury can curtail even the most precociously bred horse’s two-year-old career.

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a five furlongs handicap race for four-yearolds and upwards who have been rated from 46 to 60.

Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed.

A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb.

PLAY SMARTER

BIRKENHEAD upped his game to score readily at Catterick 6 days ago and, unpenalised, he boasts obvious claims of following up against some out-of-form types. A revival from the well-treated ûost My Sock could cause the selection some issues.
