A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN - FRIDAY 10 SEPTEMBER 2021

Good Afternoon, I’m delighted to be able to welcome you to the first day of our annual Autumn Festival. This duo of fixtures offers the perfect excuse for a well-deserved long weekend in the comfort and luxury of Chester’s finest hospitality.

Today, we have 7 races scheduled. Our first at 1:50pm is the Envirosips EBF Novice Stakes (Class 4) (2yo). Later in the afternoon, our standout races of the day - the TMT Group Handicap Stakes (Class 3) (3+yo) and the White Oak Handicap Stakes (Class 3) (3+yo) – will take place at 3:25pm and 4:30pm respectively. Finally, Friday’s fun will conclude with the Mental Health UK Amateur Jockeys’ Handicap Stakes (Class 4) (3+yo) at 5:05pm.

I’d like to thank today’s sponsors; Envirosips, Deepbridge Estate Planning, HomeServe, TMT, Motorola Solutions, White Oak and Mental Health UK. White Oak are a lending platform who provide financial services to small and medium businesses. Their work has been more valuable than ever during this last year.

HomeServe are a renowned British brand. They have been a vital lifeline during the pandemic providing assistance to millions of homes across the country for home improvements, emergency repairs and advice.

Today we continue our support of Mental Health UK. Their tireless work has been vital to countless people across the UK during the pandemic, and we are proud to continue our partnership. We encourage you to donate whatever you can to this worthy cause.

I hope you have an excellent day here at Chester Racecourse. We next race tomorrow when we’ll see the conclusion of our 2021 Autumn Festival. Following that, we’ll take to the Roodee again on Saturday 25th September for Cheshire Day.

Ian O’Doherty Chairman

ON COURSE BETTING & HOW TO READ THE RACECARD WAYS TO BET WIN ONLY The most common form of bet. You win if your horse is first past the post.

Example: £5 win at 8/1 would return £45 (8 x £5 = £40 + £5 stake) EACH WAY Backing a horse to win or be placed. This doubles your bet – for example: £5 each way = £5 to win and £5 for a place = £10 total stake.

STANDARD EACH WAY TERMS In conjunction with The RCA, the bookmakers have introduced standard each-way terms.

Bookmakers will provide these terms, or better, when offering each-way betting.

• • • • • •

Fewer than 4 runners - all on to win 5 – 7 runnewrs (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1,2 8 or more runners – 1/5 odds a place 1,2,3 Handicaps with 12 to 15 runners (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1,2,3 Handicaps with 16 to 21 runners (inclusive) – 1/5 odds a place 1,2,3,4 Handicaps with 22 or more runners – 1/4 odds a place 1,2,3,4

Some bookmakers also offer ‘betting without the favourite’, where you can back your selection at reduced odds to either win or finish second to the horse nominated by the bookmaker as favourite. You may bet with confidence with any bookmaker on course as they operate with Administration Of Gambling On Tracks Ltd. (AGT) approval. In the unlikely event of a dispute with a bookmaker, please call upon the assistance of the AGT Betting Ring Manager, who can be found on the ground floor of the Grandstand Enclosure.

The AGT also offers a ‘late pay’ service in case the bookmaker leaves the course before you have collected your winnings. Late pay claims should be sent to: AGT, 3A Kings Hall, Parsons Green, St Ives, Cambridgeshire, PE27 4WY. PLACING A BET Experiencing the buzz of the betting ring may be a little daunting at first, but you will soon find it is very easy to place a bet. Here are some guidelines for racegoers to follow: 1. Each bookmaker will be offering slightly different prices, so shop around for the best odds against your selection.

2. Call your bet clearly to the bookmaker by stating the name and / or number of your chosen horse and the stake.

3. Listen to the bookmaker repeat your bet to his / her clerk and correct him immediately if any details are called wrongly.

4. Make sure you obtain a ticket from the bookmaker and keep it safe.

5. If your selection wins, hand the ticket back to the bookmaker for settlement.

Never destroy or dispose of your ticket until after the “Weighed in” announcement has been made. Betting with the bookmaker is tax-free. Deductions are made only if a horse is withdrawn after the betting market has been formed.

Please check the minimum stake accepted by each bookmaker on his display board.

Some bookmakers do not take sums under £5, especially in the main betting ring, but there will be others who are happy to accept £2 bets. Please tender the correct change when possible.

HIIII Can be given little or no chance.

15. Jockey’s photo. If there is a number next to the name, this indicates that the jockey can claim that amount in weight (lbs) off the stated riding weight

OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS 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.

RACE 1

TODAY’S TOP TIPS SPACER has only found one rival too strong in his two appearances and, considering that opponent has subsequently placed in Group company, it would be no surprise if he took centre stage in this contest. The David Loughnane-trained colt gets the nod to complete a double, while Luminous Light made all on his sole start at Goodwood and the son of Iffraaj rates the most immediate danger. Red Power is the most experienced contender in the field and will aim to put that to good use.

RACE 2

WIN: SPACER

Way To Win shed the maiden tag in commanding style on his latest outing, romping home to dismiss his laboured rivals by 11 lengths, and he demands plenty of respect. He may, however, not be suited by this sounder surface and it could be worth opting for something lower down the weights. With that in mind, TRUELY ACLAIMED gets the nod to land the spoils having bumped into an improving colt on each of his two outings.

Unspoken is another to consider.

RACE 3

WIN: TRUELY ACLAIMED

RACE 4 RACE 5

DANGER: MR EXCELLENCY

REVICH drops in class after a solid third here in a class 2 handicap over slightly further and although he has to shoulder top-weight in this company, he has won here three times and seems to save his best for the track. Gabrial The Wire is well handicapped on his best form and could surprise a few for his in-form stable, while The Kodi Kid looks interesting on his first start for new connections after winning here in July.

WIN: REVICH

DANGER: THE KODI KID

Super Stars looked as if things happened all too quickly for him first time out over shorter and he may do a lot better upped to this trip for his in-form yard. HAPAP pulled too hard for his own good on his Sandown debut but ran on nicely into fifth, beaten four lengths, and looks likely to improve here. As does Aegis Power, who was only ninth on his debut over shorter but should be far better suited by this trip as a son of Nathaniel.

WIN: HAPAP

RACE 6

DANGER: WAY TO WIN

Mr Excellency demands the utmost respect stepping into calmer waters, however, he is somewhat unlucky to remain on this mark after two underwhelming efforts and it may be best to look elsewhere. With that in mind, FAST STEPS gets the nod after giving a good account at Epsom last time out. Rival has been a slightly inconsistent customer of late but the course-and-distance winner is dangerous to dismiss.

WIN: FAST STEPS

DANGER: SUPER STARS

GABRIAL THE ONE tends to go well at this venue and could be the answer now down in distance, having failed to last home over 2m last time. Buriram is also worth a second look at this trip having cut no ice over two-and-a-half miles at Goodwood last time, while State Of Bliss is likely to appreciate dropping in class and shouldn’t be too far away at the finish either.

WIN: GABRIAL THE ONE

RACE 7

DANGER: LUMINOUS LIGHT

DANGER: STATE OF BLISS

NEWTON JACK returned to winning ways at this track in May and he merits the utmost respect this afternoon, despite being 10lb higher, following two second-placed finishes in his most recent starts. Sir Benedict is another who has been knocking hard on the door late and he should be in the mix once again, while Glengarry also merits a place on the shortlist.

WIN: NEWTON JACK

DANGER: SIR BENEDICT

THE RACECOURSE DESCRIPTION

A left-handed circular flat course, turning for most of the way, and finishing in a short straight which is less than two furlongs in length.

The course suits the handy type of horse and a fast start is quite important in sprints. At just over a mile around this is the smallest course in Great Britain.

A fascinating listed event but RIBHI looked a smart colt in the making when powering clear late on his debut at Salisbury and is fancied to take this step up in class in his stride upped to seven furlongs. Hoo Ya Mal also caught the eye when a ready scorer in a hot York maiden and is feared most, although Newmarket-scorer Razzle Dazzle and Gimcrack-fifth Eldrickjones can’t be ruled out either.

An interesting novice, with SPACER just about the most persuasive option. He’s bred to be a sprinter, but certainly wasn’t stopping when landing a 7f contest at Haydock a month ago.

Luminous Light has the inside stall and will doubtless attempt to dominate things from the start, so he has to be feared.

ARMOR’s decisive Molecomb win is comfortably the best form on offer, and with the step up to 6f a potential excuse for a defeat in a French Group 1 last time, he can get back on track eased in class. This is a pretty quick turnaround for Corazon 8 days on from her Longchamp win but she’s very progressive and is feared most.

for two yrs old Total race value £10700 Owners Prize Money. 1st £4054, 2nd £2026, 3rd £1014, 4th £506, 5th £240, 6th £240, 7th £240. (Penalty Value £5130) Weights raised 1lb and paragraphs 27 to 31 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

RACE DESCRIPTION A nursery is a handicap that is restricted to two-year-olds only. In order to be allowed to take part, entrants must have already run in three maiden or novice races, or have won two races, which then qualifies them for an official handicap rating based on what they have achieved so far. Quite simply, the higher their rating, the bigger the weight they have to carry. This particular seven furlong race is for horses which have been rated from 0 to 85.

TRUELY ACLAIMED is a progressive filly who pulled clear of the rest when a close second on her nursery bow at Newcastle last week and has obvious claims off the same mark (due to go up 6lb).

THE HOMESERVE HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 4)

1m 2f 70y

for three yrs old Total race value £11200 Owners Prize Money. 1st £4267, 2nd £2133, 3rd £1067, 4th £533, 5th £240, 6th £240, 7th £240, 8th £240. (Penalty Value £5400) Weights raised 2lbs and paragraphs 27 to 31 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

RACE DESCRIPTION This is a one mile and two furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds which have been rated from 66 to 85.

In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

PLAY SMARTER

It was only a maiden handicap BOOKMARK won at Pontefract 7 days ago but Michael Bell’s charge could hardly have been more impressive in opening her account, eased down for a 17-length success over this sort of trip. Wisely turned out quickly, she may well be up to following up. Fast Steps may have more to offer and can feature, whilst the forecast good gallop should play into the hands of Farhan.

(Penalty Value £7731) Weights raised 2lbs and paragraphs 27 to 31 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

RACE DESCRIPTION This is a seven furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 76 to 95. To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have run at least three times in a Flat race in Britain or have run in no more than two Flat races run in Britain and won at least one of them. This rating then dictates the weight to be carried in a handicap. In simple terms a horse rated 95 in this particular race would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 90.

Lots in with a shout. REVICH is fancied to bag a third C&D success given he can race off the same mark as when a very good third here last time. Gabrial The Devil is another who is always to be respected round here and he is next on the list ahead of another C&D scorer in Paws For Thought.

Don’t forget to bet on the 3:35 at SANDOWN PARK and 3:45 at DONCASTER.

A host in with chances but it could pay to side with CHAIRMANOFTHEBOARD. Mick Channon’s charge shaped very well when fifth at Thirsk a fortnight ago (finishing well under hands-and-heels riding after meeting trouble) so he’s put forward as the answer having dropped below his last winning mark.

1m 2f 70y

for maiden two yrs old Total race value £11600 Owners Prize Money. 1st £4713, 2nd £2357, 3rd £1179, 4th £589, 5th £295, 6th £147.

(Penalty Value £5978.64) RACE DESCRIPTION This race is a one mile and two furlongs maiden stakes for two-year-olds. Maiden races provide a starting point for young horses that are yet to record a victory and most will be very lightly-raced or be making their racecourse debuts. Previous experience can count for a lot when searching for the winner but well-bred or precocious juveniles are more than capable of landing the prize at the first time of asking.

HAPAP offered plenty to work on when fifth in a good-looking maiden at Sandown 19 days ago, and given his pedigree, he should relish this step up in trip. This doesn’t look a deep race so he really ought to take plenty of stopping, with Abbado and Super Stars likely improvers, too.

PLAY SMARTER

This can go to one of the 3-y-os, chief amongst them SEA LA ROSA. She again shaped well despite not being suited by the way the race developed when runner-up at York (10.2f) in August, and with the return to this longer trip a plus, she’s expected to play a lead role once more. Thousand Oaks beat a next-time-out winner at Newmarket in July and is feared most, ahead of Ms Gandhi.

THE WHITE OAK HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 3)

1m 4f 63y

for three yrs old and upwards Total race value £15000 Owners Prize Money. 1st £6095, 2nd £3048, 3rd £1524, 4th £762, 5th £381, 6th £191.

(Penalty Value £7731) Weights raised 2lbs and paragraphs 27 to 31 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

RACE DESCRIPTION This is a one mile and four furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 76 to 95. Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased.

Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb.

Richard Fahey’s charge didn’t get home here over 15.9f last month and he’s taken to strike from this reduced mark. It’s Good To Laugh went very close here on penultimate start so he’s feared most if anywhere near that level.

RACE DESCRIPTION Today’s finale is a seven and a half furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 61 to 80. Like most handicaps on the flat this race which is restricted to Gentleman Amateur riders is also open to horses that are rated below that particular band. However, all handicaps stipulate a minimum weight and no runner can carry less than that, irrespective of how low their rating is.

This is often described as ‘running from out of the handicap’ and is considered a disadvantage.

PLAY SMARTER

A winner at Salisbury during the spring, NEWTON JACK arrives on the back of a pair of solid runners-up efforts, reeled in only by an improving 3-y-o over further at Epsom on his most recent start in July. and he looks sure to go well again from a handy draw. Sir Benedict is similarly in good order and can feature. Confrontational and Pacino also make each-way appeal in the finale.
