Horse & Jockey Welfare at Wolverhampton
Nothing matters more to us when racing than the safety and welfare of both horse and rider. Central to that is the track itself and our groundstaff do everything in their power to provide an optimum racing surface. On duty today we also have a dedicated and experienced team of highly-qualified Vets, Doctors and Paramedics following the action at every stage. Their key responsibility is to monitor and provide care to the competitors throughout their time at the racecourse. The locations and vehicle movements of these skilled specialists during racing are designed to provide a rapid response to any incident across the site. We also have a high-specification horse ambulance in attendance at every fixture to enable safe transport of a horse from the track to our on-site veterinary treatment facility for further treatment, or to the nearest equine referral hospital. It is our standard practice to erect screens around any horse or jockey requiring attention on the course as this provides privacy and a safe, calm environment in which to accurately diagnose and treat the patient as necessary. Please do not assume the worst if screens are erected around a horse. We are fully committed to minimizing risk in our sport, to dealing professionally and efficiently with any injury, and to maintaining the highest possible quality of care for the horses and jockeys racing here today. To find out more about our Equine Welfare policy, please visit our website www. wolverhampton-racecourse.co.uk.

Star Ratings Explained
Each horse is given a star rating, these are defined below: HHHHH Selected to win the race HHHHI Good chance of being placed HHHII By no means without a chance
HHIII At least one or two hold stronger claims HIIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope IIIII 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

LONGEST TRAVELLER: THE TOFF trained by K Scott, Galashiels, 243 miles. RACE SUMMARY
PESSOA looked better than ever when going in over C&D recently and looks the way to go nudged up just 2lb. Conquest of Power is feared most on the back of his good Kempton third, while Dors Toyboy and Bishop’s Glory also need factoring into this open handicap. 1-2-3: 1.PESSOA 2.CONQUEST OF POWER 3.DORS TOYBOY (IRE) KEY

RACE SUMMARY There could be plenty more to come from George Boughey’s BETTER who is selected to make light of a double-figure rise for last month’s C&D success. The unexposed James Tate handicap newcomer Invincible Speed is a potentially dangerous opponent, while the draw could have been kinder to Zola Power but he’s one who could easily have more to offer for new trainer Mick Appleby. 1-2-3: 1.BETTER (IRE) 2.INVINCIBLE SPEED (IRE) 3.ZOLA POWER KEY colours

BEAUZON isn’t one for maximum faith given his slow starts but he lines up having capitalised on his much-reduced mark with a bit to spare over C&D on Sunday and could just be worth siding with to follow up under a penalty. Come On Girl finished a good second from an unpromising position at Southwell recently and she’s feared, with My Boy Jack and One For The Ladies completing the shortlist.

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): M Appleby (73 wins from 638 runners, 11%) runs WIN WIN POWER TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): G L Moore (5 wins from 20 runners, 25%) runs CEPHALUS LONGEST TRAVELLER: SHOWMEDEMONEY trained by I Jardine, Carrutherstown, 205 miles. RACE SUMMARY
Having landed a big gamble at Lingfield last month, CEPHALUS more than backed up that effort when runner-up at Southwell 6 days ago, headed close home but nicely clear of the remainder. Now equipped with a first-time visor, he’s expected to make another bold bid from what remains an exploitable mark. Ring of Gold is down to a lenient mark himself and he’s a threat, particularly granted a good pace to aim at. Win Win Power can also make the frame. 1-2-3: 1.CEPHALUS 2.RING OF GOLD 3.WIN WIN POWER (IRE) KEY colours

The vote goes to LUNARSCAPE, who found only a well-treated pair too strong on her stable debut at this course 16 days ago. Asgard’s Captain has been hit hard by the assessor for his wide-margin win at Musselburgh back in August but further improvement can’t be ruled out on first start for Dylan Cunha. Surprise Picture has dropped to a handy mark and completes the shortlist having taken a step back in the right direction at Newcastle last time.

RACE EIGHT
Nothing matters more to us when racing than the safety and welfare of both horse and rider. Central to that is the track itself and our groundstaff do everything in their power to provide an optimum racing surface. On duty today we also have a dedicated and experienced team of highly-qualified Vets, Doctors and Paramedics following the action at every stage. Their key responsibility is to monitor and provide care to the competitors throughout their time at the racecourse. The locations and vehicle movements of these skilled specialists during racing are designed to provide a rapid response to any incident across the site. We also have a high-specification horse ambulance in attendance at every fixture to enable safe transport of a horse from the track to our on-site veterinary treatment facility for further treatment, or to the nearest equine referral hospital.
