WELCOME TO HEREFORD RACECOURSE

Welcome to Hereford Racecourse for an afternoon of jump racing sponsored by Planet Sport Bet. We also welcome NAF Racing who are kindly sponsoring our new Best Turned Out Horse Award League. Running from October through to the end of the season in April, the winning individuals’ yards from each raceday will be recorded with an overall yard crowned the winner and rewarded with a bumper prize of NAF Racing products. The teamwork by stable staff that goes into every horse to make it look at its best when on a racecourse is something we feel should be rewarded by way of this seasonal league. If you haven’t made a start on the Christmas shopping yet (who has?), then the Injured Jockeys’ Fund stand here with us today is the perfect place to start! With Christmas cards, gifts and much more available to purchase, with all proceeds going to such a worthy cause, do pay them a visit next to the winner’s enclosure. Thank you to the volunteers from the Hereford Poppy Appeal who are here today collecting for the 2023 Appeal, you will also see our poppies around the enclosures including the purple poppy, a symbol of remembrance to those animals lost in war and conflict. We next race on Tuesday 21st November, Residents’ Raceday, which offers those with an ‘HR’ postcode 2 for 1 on general admission tickets. This offer is only available in advance, so visit our website to book your tickets www.hereford-racecourse.co.uk. We hope you enjoy your day with us! Best wishes,

Camilla Esling General Manager

It is our policy to erect green screens around the horse requiring veterinary attention, to provide the privacy required at such times.

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. To find out more about our Equine Welfare policy please visit our website www.hereford-racecourse.co.uk.

Star Ratings Explained Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: Selected to win the race. Good chance of being placed. By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims

hope.

Unlikely to win but not totally without 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.

KENTFORD MALLARD showed the benefit of a recent run when resuming winning ways over C&D 3 weeks ago and, raised 3lb on the back of that, it would come as no surprise to see her make another bold bid. Belles Benefit and Lelantos head up the dangers, whilst Dukehill demands market attention on debut for his new yard.

TIMEFORM VIEW Hurdles winner who added another couple of staying handicaps on the Flat to his tally earlier this year.

KRAQUELINE proved a different proposition sent chasing when going in at Wincanton last week and can make light of her 7lb penalty with this return to further also looking a positive. Harry’s Hottie made a promising start in this sphere too when fourth at Ffos Las for Jamie Snowden so must enter calculations along with the returning duo Lazy Sunday and Head And Heart. 1-2-3: 1.KRAQUELINE (FR) 2.HARRY’S HOTTIE (IRE) 3.LAZY SUNDAY KEY colours

Arguably the one with the greatest potential is PIMLICO POINT, who was a winner of his sole point start and there’s substance to the form of his Chepstow hurdles debut success. He was reported to have suffered with a breathing problem when disappointing on his latest appearance and, having since undergone a wind op, he may well get back on track now switched to fences. Bagheera Ginge, the only one of these with experience over fences and a winner last time, is feared most ahead of Sporting Mike.

Gavin Sheehan Katy Price, Llanigon Tote S

TIMEFORM VIEW Modest form in bumpers but much better signs over hurdles, confirming debut promise when landing 2m novice at Warwick in March. Signed off with a modest run, but yard’s horses tend to do better over fences and he’s worth a second look. TFRHHIII BHA112

TIMEFORM VIEW Fair form in maiden/novice hurdles and made the frame all 3 starts in handicap company. Has undergone a wind op since latest start in March and could have a part to play for in-form yard if his jumping holds up now switched to the larger obstacles. TFRHHHII BHA112

TIMEFORM VIEW Improved when making a winning handicap debut over hurdles at Carlisle in March. Turned over when odds on to follow up at Chepstow (2m, soft) 4 days later, but that was still a creditable effort and he’s one to consider now sent chasing. TFRHHHII BHA106

TIMEFORM VIEW Showed more than on debut over timber when third of 8 in a Fontwell maiden (17.7f, good) in August. Subsequent fifth upped to 2 1/2m at Uttoxeter was no backward step, but will need to raise his game now tackling fences if he’s to make a winning start in this sphere. TFRHHIII BHA100

This looks like a good opportunity for GONE IN SIXTY, who went down narrowly at Fontwell last month, and a mere reproduction of that would probably be good enough to see him home in front here. Fanfan du Seuil has slipped to a dangerous mark and will be a threat if ready to roll back in this sphere following an 11-month absence, while Pencil is also accorded respect on the back of an improved effort at Bangor. 1-2-3: 1.GONE IN SIXTY 2.FANFAN DU SEUIL (FR) 3.PENCIL (IRE) KEY colours
