WELCOME & MEET THE TEAM
Welcome to Sedgefield Racecourse for our 30th January Race Day. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned racing enthusiast we hope you have an enjoyable afternoon with us. My thanks go to RPS Desani & Cazoo for sponsoring our race card today. We are delighted to have Fusion Cake Haus onsite with the most amazing cupcakes; they are not to be missed! Today, we have a cracking eight race card as we have a division. Brian Hughes, the leader of the Jump Jockeys Championship, is with us today, and has several rides booked. He had two winners on the day last time here on the 14th January, so will be looking for a few good results today. Don’t forget to book your tickets online for our next fixture on February 9th. Gates open 11.37, 1st race gets underway at 13.37. As always, I wish you all the very best in picking a few winners and I look forward to welcoming you back to Sedgefield Racecourse again soon. Enjoy the day and good luck. Emma Bowman COMMERCIAL EXECUTIVE

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.
Runswick Days won The Santander In Memory of Robert Forster Handicap Steeple Chase at Sedgefield on Tuesday 11th November 2014.
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.

BOLINTLEA displayed plenty of ability in bumpers and, bearing in mind her pointing background, she should be suited by a switch to hurdles and a longer trip, so she’s a confident choice to open her account under Rules.

ANYHARMINASKING lowered the colours of Constitution Hill no less in points and looked way ahead of his mark when scoring at Catterick earlier in the month so is hard to oppose here despite taking a 13lb rise in the weights.

HEARTBREAK KID arrives in good order and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to open his account over fences for his in-form yard.

Typically competitive fare with the narrow vote in favour of top-weight ONEHUNDREDPERCENT. He acquitted himself with credit all 3 starts in handicaps on the back of landing a course novice last year and it would come as no surprise to see him go well on the back of a short break.

DALKINGSTOWN is going the right way now over fences and Peter Bowen’s charge gets the nod to supplement his recent course victory and defy a subsequent 7lb rise in the weights. Light Flicker recorded a third success over fences at Market Rasen early last month and he looks the biggest threat to the selection on paper, with Tanora completing the shortlist. 1-2-3: 1.DALKINGSTOWN 2.LIGHT FLICKER (IRE) 3.TANORA (IRE) KEY colours
