WELCOME TO HEREFORD RACECOURSE
Welcome to Hereford for what many people would call a proper Jump racing afternoon! Wetherby staged the first BIG chase of the season on Saturday, and such is and myriad and vibrancy of racing that competitive grass roots Jump racing so well associated with Hereford feeds into these bigger racedays in so many ways. The pyramid of racing is vitally important and we are proud of the part that we and many other smaller racecourses play in providing opportunities stars of the future to have their early runs, but also in providing opportunity for horses at a different level to compete. We wish all Horses, Owners, Trainers, Jockeys and Stable Staff involved today a safe and enjoyable visit. A warm welcome too for today’s sponsors and in particular to Phil & Carol Houldey, their friends and family who are sharing and celebrating their Golden Wedding anniversary. Phil & Carol have been generous and kind supporters of Hereford since our reopening, and before then have long enjoyed a deep rooted love of Point-to-Point racing. We are thrilled they have chosen to spend their special day with us. For those that might fancy a dabble into racehorse ownership, the newly formed Hereford Racing Club is an exciting initiative. For just £299 you can enjoy, experience and hopefully celebrate the thrill of ownership and also race for free at 500+ ARC fixtures during 2022. Details are available online at www.hereford-racecourse.co.uk Another new concept this season is a Premier Viewing Lounge on certain racedays so again please do take a look online. Thank you for support at Hereford today and here’s to a cracking season ahead. Best wishes, Rebecca Davies Executive Director

Star Ratings Explained Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: Selected to win the race. Good chance of being placed. By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
hope.
Unlikely to win but not totally without 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 nonhandicaps 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. for novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating. Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

THE PHILIP & CAROL HOULDEY GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY ‘NATIONAL HUNT’ AUCTION MAIDEN HURDLE RACE (CLASS 4) (GBB RACE) Total race value £7500 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £3130, 2nd £1565, 3rd £782, 4th £392. (Penalty Value £4084.50)
RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (16-21): E Williams (11 wins from 119 runners, 9%) runs BRANDY COVE TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): Jonjo O’Neill (6 wins from 33 runners, 18%) runs A DISTANT PLACE LONGEST TRAVELLER: THE PLIMSOLL LINE trained by J Scott, Dulverton, 118 miles. RACE SUMMARY
This represents a good opportunity for A DISTANT PLACE, who was clear of the rest when going close in a Leicester handicap on his latest start last December. The Plimsoll Line has the benefit of a recent run, having finished third on his debut in this sphere at Chepstow last month, and he will ensure that the selection doesn’t have everything his own way. Brandy Cove is best of the rest.

RACE SUMMARY SASHENKA is a maiden in this sphere owing to misfortune rather than any innate shortcomings, and she is taken to open her hurdles account at the fifth attempt. The 5-y-o was just touched off in a competitive handicap on the Flat when last seen in May and this sharp track will be ideal. Amelia’s Dance did the job well at Stratford recently and she is feared, along with the progressive Peltwell. 1-2-3: 1.SASHENKA (GER) 2.AMELIA’S DANCE (IRE) 3.PELTWELL (IRE) KEY colours
