WELCOME

TO DONCASTER RACECOURSE

Hello and welcome to Doncaster Racecourse for our mid-week Winter Afternoon Jumps Raceday. We are delighted you’ve joined us here today and we would like to thank our sponsors SBK, EBF, At the Races and Sky Sports Racing for their generous support of today’s fixture.

There are 7 races on the card and our raceday presenter Bobby Beevers and resident tipster Roger Hart will be in the Parade Ring at around 12:55 to run through the racecard with you and hopefully pick you out some winners!

Our final National Hunt fixture at Town Moor is The Grimthorpe Chase weekend on Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd March. The Grimthorpe Chase is a National Hunt steeplechase that is run at Doncaster each year, and contains 19 jump fences. The distance has varied over time, but currently sits at a little over 3 miles and 2 furlongs. Considered the ultimate endurance test, this race is seen as a trial for the Aintree Grand National in April, as many winners (such as The Last Samuri and Definitely Red) have gone on to be favourites in the Merseyside race.

Then on Saturday 23rd March, Doncaster Racecourse opens the British Flat Turf Season – The Greatest Show - with The Lincoln! Town Moor will ‘Come Alive’ with stilt walkers and jugglers.

Our very own ‘Ringmaster Ryan’ will greet you on arrival and there’ll be photo opportunities in the Exhibition Hall ‘Big Top’. Sunday 24th March is The Lincoln Family Fun Day with lots of FREE entertainment, circus-themed activities and The Greatest Showman interactive mini-shows throughout the day for the kids!

We have lots of live entertainment planned for you after racing during our flat season at our Summer Saturday fixtures. These take place on Saturday 18th May, Saturday 1st June, Saturday 29th June, Saturday 20th July, Saturday 3rd August and Saturday 17th August. Make sure you’ve signed up to our e-newsletter at www.doncaster-racecourse.co.uk and follow us on social media DoncasterRaces to be the first to find out who’s performing!

The four-day Betfred St Leger Festival kicks off on Thursday 12th September with Ladies Day; the Doncaster Cup is on Friday 13th September and then the flagship day of the festival – the Betfred St Leger is on Saturday 14th. The festival draws to a close with the Leger Legends race on Sunday 15th September at our St Leger Community Fun Day – a fun-filled raceday for the whole family to enjoy.

We hope you enjoy your day with us here at Town Moor and as always, we welcome any feedback you may have.

Star Ratings Explained 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.

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 non-handicaps 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.

You must be 18 or over to place a bet You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet If you cannot produce this your bet will not be accepted

RACE SUMMARY SNOWY EVENING is on the upgrade over fences now and can make it 3 wins from his last 4 starts in this sphere. Fete Champetre had a bit more in hand than the bare margin suggests at Musselburgh so is next best ahead of chase debut winner Jazz King, who remains with potential starting out for a new yard after 11 months off.

RACE SUMMARY ROMEO BROWN has slipped to a handy mark on the pick of last season’s form and could the answer back up in trip. The dangers are headed by Johnson’s Blue, a progressive and most genuine hurdler, and Come on Teddy, who has a handy 7lb conditional on board for the first time.
