Health & Safety Notice
The Racecourse would be grateful if racegoers could observe all Health & Safety requirements whilst at Great Yarmouth Racecourse. We would also be grateful if parents could keep a close eye on children and prevent them from climbing on the running rails and getting onto the actual racecourse. We would also like to remind racegoers that the FIRST AID room is located opposite the racecourse offices.
Horse & Jockey Welfare at Great Yarmouth
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.
Baby Changing Facilities
There are four areas for baby changing: 1 on each floor in the Lord Nelson Grandstand and 1 in the toilets in the Tea Rooms.
Bars
The racecourse bars will stop serving half an hour after the last race. No person under the age of 18 years will be served or allowed to consume alcohol on these premises.
Dogs
Dogs are not allowed at Great Yarmouth Racecourse with the exception of Assisted Dogs.
Dress Code
Premier and Hospitality Enclosures – We encourage customers to adopt ‘smart casual’ clothing. Jackets, collared shirts and ties are not obligatory but we do advise customers that we do not allow ripped jeans, sportswear, jogging bottoms, beachwear, fancy dress or extreme attire. Tailored shorts, smart jeans and trainers are permitted. Grandstand & Paddock Enclosure – There is no formal dress code in this enclosure, however the removal of shirts is not permitted.
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.greatyarmouth-racecourse.co.uk.
Evacuation Procedures
Great Yarmouth Racecourse has significantly enhanced Safety & Security measures this year to ensure your safety, comfort and enjoyment of the day. However an incident may occur which is beyond our control and is important that you are aware of how we intend to look after you in the event of an emergency. As part of our Safety management, we have employed professionally trained and experienced stewards and you will see them at various points throughout the racecourse. In the event of a situation, which requires partial or full evacuation of the stands or racecourse, announcements will be broadcast and stewards will undertake the responsibility of ushering you to a place of safety; it is essential that you follow their instructions. Please take your immediate belongings with you and proceed out of the area quickly and calmly with the guidance of the stewards. The evacuation procedures have been carefully planned to lead you to a safe area. Should it be necessary to evacuate the course itself, there will be two main options; firstly to return to your vehicles if safe to do so and leave via the main entrance. Secondly, should it not be safe to return to your vehicles, you will be requested to leave via emergency evacuation gates, onto the racecourse itself, where you will receive further instructions. It may give you peace of mind if you pre plan and agree a meeting place, just in case you become separated from your party. The above is precautionary only and we trust that the procedures will never be required. However, in the event of an emergency, remember;
Laptops, Notebooks and Computing Devices
Laptop computers are not allowed into the public areas of the racecourse, irrespective of their intended use. Notebooks, tablets and mobile phones are permitted but no device is to be used for the capture of horse racing video or for communication with anyone outside the racecourse for the purpose of or in connection with any betting. Still photography is permitted but for personal use only. You will be politely asked to remove the device or leave the racecourse should you breach these conditions.
Photography
Racegoers may take photographs for private purposes. Under no circumstances may photographs taken on the racecourse be used for publication without the permission of the racecourse executive. Flash photography is essentially dangerous where horses are involved. You are asked not to use flash photography anywhere in the parade ring area and particularly near the Winners Enclosure. Recording Racing Images and Sound.
Viewing Steppings
In the interest of safety and the comfort of others, please do not take food or drink onto the Grandstand steps.

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 chance.
OFFICIAL BHA RATING 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 7

TIMEFORM VIEW Maiden who ran one of his better efforts in a first-time hood when third of 5 in a C&D handicap early last month. Ran to a similar level upped to 1 1/4m back here next time before proving too free to see it out at Newmarket. Omission of the hood is therefore a surprising move. TFRHHIII BHA57

TIMEFORMVIEWStill not the most straightforward but he stepped up from his comeback run having been gelded and sporting a first-time visor when third of 10 in handicap at Windsor (1 1/4m). Turned in a bit of a shocker at Brighton but has since transferred to James Owen. Cheekpieces replace the visor. TFRHHHHI BHA60 24
