Horse & Jockey Welfare at Wolverhampton

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.wolverhampton-racecourse.co.uk.

ADDARELLA finally broke her maiden status over this C&D 26 days ago, settling better than previously. She looks capable of defying a 4lb rise now she’s found the winning formula. Court Drive has been knocking on the door with consistent AW form and looks ready to strike soon, while Woodhay Whisper has sorted her starting issues and remains competitive despite her recent 3lb rise.

WESTCOMBE looked progressive when opening his account at Kempton just three days ago, controlling proceedings and suggesting more is in the tank. He runs off an unchanged mark and is fancied to follow up. So Alex seeks a hat-trick over C&D after proving really strong in the finish last time, whilst I’d Go Maniac completes a trio of last-time-out winners.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: DANDY KHAN trained by J Boyle, Epsom, 138 miles. RACE SUMMARY

DANDY KHAN has been in tremendous form, completing a hat-trick at Lingfield with a well-timed late challenge 12 days ago. Despite the 4lb rise, this progressive filly looks capable of further improvement. Bomb Squad has been a model of consistency, beaten by just a nose at Southwell recently, while Havana Club shaped as if still in good form when fifth here last time. 1-2-3: 1.DANDY KHAN (IRE) 2.BOMB SQUAD (IRE) 3.HAVANA CLUB KEY colours

RACE SUMMARY

The vote goes to MR NUGGET, who has resumed in good form following a wind op during the summer and he probably would’ve finished closer granted better luck-in-running when fifth over this C&D recently. Magic Runner also encountered traffic problems in a C&D handicap last week and she is likely to be in the mix, along with Maywedance and Law Supreme. 1-2-3: 1.MR NUGGET 2.MAGIC RUNNER (GER) 3.MAYWEDANCE (IRE) KEY colours
