Welcome to Bath Racecourse!

On behalf of everyone at Bath Racecourse, I am delighted to welcome you to our third fixture of the season and what promises to be a fantastic afternoon of racing.

I would like to begin with a huge thank you to our generous sponsors today – Signs Express, Silvershine, Fairplay and Hartsfield Hygge. Their continued commitment plays a vital role in making days like this possible and in supporting British racing.

We are also excited to have launched our Summer at Bath series, back by popular demand. The fixtures within this campaign promise plenty of fun and great entertainment, including:

* Friday 5th June – an evening of racing followed by a live DJ in the paddock

* Ladies Day on Saturday 13th June – a highlight of the social calendar, featuring live music and dancing through the decades

* Friday 31st July – with live music from The Wurzels after racing

* Saturday 15th August – Rum and Reggae Night with live music

* Saturday 12th September – Absolute Country, featuring a Morgan Wallen & Luke Coombs tribute

There really is something for everyone, and we are so excited to welcome you throughout the season.

We have also recently gained an additional fixture from Brighton on Wednesday 29th April, and we are very excited to be able to host this race evening. Tickets are available for just £10, so please do come along and join in the fun at this extra fixture.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of our raceday staff for their ongoing commitment and hard work. It truly does not go unnoticed, and days like this simply would not happen without you. I am extremely grateful to have you all as part of my team.

We hope you have a wonderful afternoon with us and look forward to seeing you again soon.

HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT BATH

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.bath-racecourse.co.uk.

BOHEMIAN BREEZE took a step back in the right direction when an eye-catching fourth at Chelmsford and has dipped below his last winning mark. He shades the vote over Qaaeadd, who has made a decent start for his current yard and looks worth a try at this longer distance. Moon Over The Sea is another to consider.

Their key responsibility is to monitor and provide care to the competitors throughout theirtime at the racecourse. The locations andvehicle 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.

If he breaks alertly THE THAMES BOATMAN may well have enough in the locker to register a belated first victory on turf He scored off a 7lb higher mark on the all-weather during the winter and the forecast ground will be in his favour (best efforts on turf last season came on good to firm/firm). If she puts her best foot forward Moe’s Legacy will be a threat, while Solar Edge should also make his presence felt.
