HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT SOUTHWELL
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.southwell-racecourse.co.uk.

Star Ratings Explained
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: Selected to win the race. Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. Good chance of being placed. Can be given little or no chance. By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims.
O FFI CIA L B H A R AT I N GS E XPL AI N ED D 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.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: OUTRACE trained by R Hannon, Marlborough, 154 miles. RACE SUMMARY OVERLOOKED has been consistent since cheekpieces went on and could prove the answer if new headgear (blinkers) gives him just a little bit more. Second choice is Operation Gimcrack who was better than the result on AW last time and went close off 3lb higher last summer. Up The Monk and Woodrafff are others who could have a say. 1-2-3: 1.OVERLOOKED (IRE) 2.OPERATION GIMCRACK (IRE) 3.UP THE MONK KEY colours
