Snooker Legend Dennis Taylor
Friday 20 December
Although Dennis is now retired from playing he will be meeting and mingling racegoers throughout the evening.
- Dennis Taylor **is arguably one of the greatest ever snooker players, he is a legend of the sport. With a career spanning 28 years, and countless prestigious trophies, including the World Snooker Championship in 1985, he has gained a place in the history books, a long-standing fan favourite and formidable player and one of the most popular recognisable stars for after-dinner talks.
Since stepping back from professional play, after winning a final three consecutive World Trickshot Championships, he naturally transitioned into commentary, providing insightful and entertaining analysis of live matches for the BBC. With such celebrity status, he has been sought after for media work, appearing on the likes of Big Break and Strictly Come Dancing, drawing vast numbers of viewers in with his notoriety.
Whether you’re a first time visitor or a seasoned racing enthusiast, we hope that you have an enjoyable experience today.
We have a wide variety of food and beverage outlets available throughout the racecourse which include some recent new additions for you to savour
Dining packages are available in all enclosures. Visitors can choose from the restaurant within the Holiday Inn Hotel which does not require reservations and is open to all guests, or Horizons, which is situated high in the main grandstand with stunning views of the track.

We have a wide variety of betting in all areas including Bookmakers standing in each enclosure and Tote counters throughout the course
If you require assistance today please do not hesitate to ask any of the team here at Wolverhampton.
I wish you all an enjoyable and successful time here at Wolverhampton Racecourse and a safe journey home.

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

HORSE AND 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.

ROSENPUR looked unlucky not to open his account having been caught further back than ideal when runner-up over C&D 11 days ago and, with that performance backed up by the clock, he’s fancied to make a bold bid to deservedly shed the maiden tag. Last-time-out winners Profitman and Reputation are a couple of likely threats, as is another inform sort, Valadero.
