WELCOME
A very Happy Bank Holiday to you all and warm thanks from the whole Cartmel team for joining us today. It is always with some small sense of sadness that I write my final Welcome of the Season. However, we have some wonderful memories to look back on. I cannot thank enough all the Owners who have declared runners with us today; their loyalty to Cartmel is sincerely appreciated. Our thanks go to those of you who regularly join us; your loyalty to Cartmel is hugely valued. It is always a pleasure to welcome back our Annual Members and not to be forgotten, the on-course Bookmakers who add such character to the event. Our regular partners who are also owed warm recognition are Hadwins and RF Miller & Co., and our Sponsors today are : Sticky Toffee Pudding Campbell & Rowley EWGA FGH Security Wicks Group Today’s Charity is the Furness Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA). In the UK, the RDA enriches the lives of young people through the unique bond between people and horses. Each year, RDA supports over 39,000 disabled children and adults. I would recommend you take a moment to visit their stall and learn a bit more about the services and help they offer. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the whole Cartmel Raceday Team for their work on this and every race day; work often carried out in challenging circumstances and always with great good humour. Our season closes this evening; but tomorrow we begin planning for 2027. Keeping in mind the generous support we receive from our customers, we will always seek to do better and look forward to greeting you once more next May!

Cartmel Racecourse
ENJOY THE RACES IN SAFETY A day at Cartmel Racecourse should be great fun for everyone; nobody wants an injury or an incident to spoil their day. So, when push comes to shove, we need to make sure that there isn’t any pushing or shoving. The racecourse team prepares carefully for each event and we take every precaution to ensure that the site is as safe as is practical. However, we also need some help from you – to take responsibility for your own safety and to respect the safety and comfort of those around you. With this in mind, we’ve compiled a brief list of precautions that we’d like all visitors to consider: ALCOHOL & SUBSTANCE ABUSE Fortunately very few accidents occur at Cartmel Racecourse, but those that do are most likely to be relatively minor incidents involving someone who has had too much to drink. Quite simply: you’ll be safer if you drink less alcohol. On the rare occasion that we receive a customer complaint, it’s quite likely to be linked to the behaviour of someone who’s had one too many. So please drink responsibly and encourage your friends to stay within their limits. Any incident involving substance abuse will be dealt with by Cumbria Police.
parkland, that forms the racecourse, includes many uneven surfaces which may become slippery in wet conditions. Please take care of yourselves and mind where you walk. Don’t try to run faster than your legs can go, even if you think your bookmaker might be packing away for the day.
FENCES, WALLS & BARRIERS The fences, walls and temporary barriers located on the racecourse are intended to segregate people into specific areas. This may include segregating people from horses or people from sensitive or hazardous equipment. Please do not attempt to climb over, sit on or stand on any barriers – regardless of whether they appear to be permanent SLIPS, TRIPS, FALLS or temporary features – they are not The most common cause for a visit to our designed to take a person’s weight. medical tent is sunstroke… Okay, that’s only on hot days. The most common cause, on a ENCLOSURES normal day, is a grazed knee. Many of these We remain very happy that our visitors can travel between enclosures to experience all incidents involve children aged under five years old or adults that have had one drink that Cartmel Racecourse has to offer. too many (see previous point about alcohol). However, these routes use the racing surface and we must always make sure that the Customers are reminded that the natural
horses have fully left the track, before we open the gates to humans. Whilst we are sorry you may need to wait – please understand that any delays are due to us keeping you safe. RECYCLING All of our waste is recycled at the waste depot so please feel free to use any bin. TREES The scenery at the racecourse is enhanced by beautiful trees, including some very old oaks. However, despite clichés such as ‘strong as an oak’ it should be noted that all trees are capable of shedding branches with little warning. While we inspect all the trees on the racecourse annually, we recommend that you do not sit beneath the branches. We especially ask that neither children, nor adults, swing or climb on the branches of trees within the parkland. PARKING Why do I need to pre-book parking now? This is a decision taken by the authorities out-with our control and what they are looking for is a record in advance of everyone who is driving a car on-site. Why is there less car parking on site now? Again, this has been mandated by the external authorities in order to maintain a safe distance between vehicles and pedestrians. WATER Children are naturally attracted by the water in the beck that meanders through the Paddock Enclosure. For reasons that should be obvious, we recommend that children are supervised at all times. We also recommend that anyone paddling in the beck wears shoes or boots to protect their feet. Animals use the beck upstream (and downstream), so please do not use the beck for washing up your picnic utensils, for drinking or for cleaning your hands. HORSES Horses are big and run very fast; hopefully yours will run fastest of all. Please pay attention when in close proximity to the horses: stay on the public side of any barriers (close to the track or horse walk
areas) and do not sit on or lean over barriers near to the horses. The running rails are designed to encourage the horses to stay on the track – but they will not withstand a horse’s weight if they hit them, nor a jockey’s if he is thrown over them – so be prepared to move if a horse is behaving erratically. VEHICLE MOVEMENT Be aware of moving vehicles at all times. If you are driving a vehicle, please pay special attention to pedestrians. BARBECUES Every year the first aid team will treat at least one person with burnt fingers and we will be required to extinguish at least one fire in a wheelie bin. If you intend to bring a barbecue, please ensure that you handle it safely, take care not to scorch the grass and dispose of it in a metal bin – only when it is fully extinguished. No gas barbecues or gas canisters are permitted on the racecourse. Please extinguish all BBQs 20 minutes before racing starts. CHILDREN Whilst its brilliant to be up close to the racing action, we would appreciate you not allowing children to sit on the racetrack perimeter fence. Also – if you see any damage to racecourse fences, temporary structures or furniture we would appreciate you reporting this damage as soon as possible to a member of our stewarding team. ABANDONMENT Abandonment refunds: Full refunds for general admission tickets will be given if racing is abandoned before the first race. A 50% refund will be given if racing is abandoned before the third or featured race. No cash refunds will be given on the day, but will be administered by post after the meeting. Please retain your tickets as they will be required for your refund application. Applications for refunds should be sent within one month of the fixture.
JOCKEYS’ & TRAINERS’ CHALLENGES 2026 CARTMEL JOCKEYS’ CHALLENGE Cartmel for the majority of our meetings.
Sean Bowen Congratulations go out to Sean Bowen who has won the Cartmel Jockey Challenge for 2026. An 8 point lead will be enough to see him regain the title, even if it is one of the rare days when without any success. The 2 time National Hunt Champion Jockey is a regular here, and rode his first ever winner too. With backing of powerful stables like Olly Murphy, Gordon Elliott and of course brother Mickey, we are delighted that Sean returns to
In current second place is Leah Noreci. This has been a great Summer for Leah, picking up more rides with 4 winners here in 2026. She is fantastic value for her Claim, and showed her judging of pace to perfection on Saturday in our opening Mountain Goat Tours Handicap Hurdle on Alvesta. There was a runaway leader who was still well in front after the last fence, but Leah timed the winning to perfection to get the popular well backed winner up close home. Leah’s 7 pound Claim is sure to be reduced soon. Harry Reed was successful in the big race on Saturday, the Cartmel Cup. This demonstrated the life of a Jockey, as Harry was riding at Fontwell in West Sussex on Friday evening, before making the long journey here. It was a worthwhile trip as he landed the spoils on Morning Mayhem where any one of 4 horses could have been called the winner, before Harry got his mount up on where it mattered.

MARTIN TODHUNTER, SEAMUS MULLINS 8 CARTMEL TRAINERS’ CHALLENGE As we go into the final day, the Challenge is not officially won, but it would be a major shock if Jimmy Moffatt was not to retain his title, and win for a record breaking 8th time. Jimmy holds a 15 point lead over his nearest pursuer Mickey Bowen, and while Mickey has plenty of entries it would be a brave person betting against the title going to Pit Farm Stables. The most poignant win on the day was in our final race when the David Thompson trained Ilogical Logic won the Cenzig Sadik Memorial Trophy. This is the 20th year that Aytach Sadik has supported the back in honour of his son, and there wasn’t a dry eye in the winners enclosure when his own horse came home in front, under well judged Ellis Collier ride. What was noticeable was how many other Trainers and Jockeys came to congratulate winning connections after the race highlighting how much it meant. David Thompson does very well with a small string and is was a lovely way to end the day.

BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE
Race Description This is a two miles and six furlongs handicap hurdle race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 115. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 60 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 170. Leading course trainer (20-25): J Moffatt (43 wins from 286 runners, 15%) runs BIG GYPSY KING, DUSKY DAYS, ENYA, MASTERMINDING and SECRET SECRET Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): M Bowen (4 wins from 18 runners, 22%) runs FAIRLAWN SKIPPER Longest Traveller: FAIRLAWN SKIPPER trained by M Bowen, Haverfordwest, 262 miles.

BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE
Race Description This is a three mile and one furlongs handicap hurdle race for four-year-olds and upwards. Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 7lb. Leading course trainer (20-25): M Bowen (9 wins from 58 runners, 16%) runs KAYF DANCER Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): M Bowen (4 wins from 18 runners, 22%) runs KAYF DANCER Weightwatcher: IMPERIAL DATA won off a handicap mark of 124, his rating is now down 6lb to 118.

BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE
Race Description This is a three mile and one and a half furlong handicap steeple chase for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 140. To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have won a race, been placed twice or raced at least three times in order for the handicapper to gauge the level of form shown. This rating then dictates the weight to be carried in a handicap. In simple terms a horse rated 135 in this particular race would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 130.

BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE
Race Description This two miles, five furlong handicap steeple chase has been designed for fouryear-olds and upwards which are rated from 0 to 125. In most National Hunt handicaps, there is a minimum weight of 10st 2lb so any horse whose official rating would allocate them less than that still has to shoulder that burden. The horses that fall into this category are said to be racing from ‘out of the handicap’ – usually a distinct disadvantage.
