TIMEFORM VIEW French import who opened his account over hurdles at the third attempt at Les Sables-d’Olonne (17.2f, good to soft) when last seen in June. Form hard to quantify and penalty to carry on British debut, but probably the one to beat all the same. Star RatingHHHHI Official BHA Rating - HENRY BROOKE

TIMEFORM VIEW Notched fourth Flat success when taking a 1 3/4m Salisbury handicap in June. Below par both starts since but bred to make a jumper (dam is a half-sister to a couple of winning hurdlers) and stamina won’t be an issue, so he has to be of interest on debut in this sphere.

Poor in a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree on latest start but makes hurdles debut for new yard at a realistic level and he needs considering. Hood applied.

TIMEFORM VIEW Showed more than he did in bumpers when fourth of 10 on recent hurdles debut at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good). Still, he’s probably more one for handicaps further down the line.

TIMEFORM VIEW Half-brother to Snow Leopardess and showed plenty of ability a couple of seasons back, winner of a bumper here in March 2021. 18-month absence an obvious concern (has undergone a wind op in the interim) but he’s still an intriguing candidate for this hurdles debut.

RACE SUMMARY:

Largely consistent on the Flat, DANCING HARRY is appealing now switched to hurdles. He is making his debut in this sphere at a very realistic level and should go close provided his jumping passes the test. It’s A Good Name was a decisive winner on his latest start in France and looks dangerous despite the penalty, while Donaire and Parramount both showed more than enough in bumpers to make them of interest.

“Racing’s top priority is the safety and welfare of horse and rider”. Like most sports racing carries risks, however, we work to make sure that no death or injury occurs, which could have been prevented.

Here at Stratford Racecourse 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. At every meeting we have two specially qualified Equine Vets appointed to look after the welfare of all horses in action. There is also a British Horseracing Authority Vet in attendance.

During the race two vets follow the action from the centre of the course and can attend to a horse in the same response time as the Paramedic Teams responsible for treating the injured jockeys.

It is standard policy that in the event of a horse requiring veterinary treatment whilst on site, screens will be erected round the horse. It is designed to afford the vet and the patient some privacy. Please do not assume the worst.
