LONGEST TRAVELLER: FLASH BARDOT trained by J Channon, West Ilsley, 282 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

Having attracted strong support, FADE TO GRAY showed plenty of ability amidst greenness when third at this C&D on debut last week and he can progress from that run to open his account. Flash Bardot improved from her debut when runner-up here last time and is feared most, ahead of Shaw Park

Horse Welfare

Here at Newcastle Racecourse nothing matters more to us than looking after the horses that make us the North East’s Premier Racecourse We do everything in our power to ensure that we provide a racing surface of the highest quality and we take every conceivable care to minimise the chances of horses incurring any injury whilst here.

Regrettably, as in any highly competitive sport, there are occasions when something goes wrong and horses have to be given the very best veterinary care.

There are three Veterinary Surgeons here today to ensure that should any horse need help they will be attended to within seconds of any incident occurring. Their first priority is to make a rapid diagnosis and to help them do this our groundstaff team will erect screens around any horse that needs attention Once the diagnosis is made, one of our horse ambulances will attend the scene and will transport the horse back to the stables where further treatment and assessment can be undertaken. Occasionally, it may be that the nature of the injury is such that a horse is unable to make a recovery. If this is the case the Veterinary team may take the decision to put the horse down straight away In these circumstances we should remember that the horse’s welfare comes first and that this option is kindest for the horse.

RACE SUMMARY

SNUGGLE sets a very high standard in this grade and looks to have a straightforward task after a highly encouraging return at Lingfield earlier in the month. Winter Crown showed a bit in a pair of starts for Charlie Appleby and looks clear second best, whilst debutant Dalton Lane wouldn’t need to be above average to make the frame if ready to roll first time up
