WELCOME TO
Welcome to Haydock Park for the Sky Bet Peter Marsh Chase Day It is a pleasure to welcome you to Haydock Park for our Sky Bet Peter Marsh Chase Raceday, as we kick off another memorable year of racing here at Haydock Park. The Sky Bet Peter Marsh Chase is a race steeped in history and tradition, renowned for providing a searching test of stamina and jumping. Frequently run in testing mid-winter conditions, it has long been a proving ground for high-class staying chasers and remains a highlight for owners, trainers, jockeys, and racegoers alike. January racing at Haydock Park offers a distinctive atmosphere, where determination on the track is matched by the passion and knowledge of our winter audience. Whether you are a regular National Hunt follower or joining us for your first visit of the year, we are delighted to have you with us. Looking ahead, this raceday also marks an ideal opportunity to plan your visits for the months ahead. Our website features a range of experiences including upcoming raceday tickets, hospitality packages, Annual Memberships, and the chance to get closer to the sport through ownership opportunities with the Haydock Park Racing Club. Our team has worked hard to ensure a welcoming and enjoyable raceday experience, with excellent food and drink options, warm hospitality, and friendly raceday staff on hand throughout the course. I would like to thank Sky Bet and Peter Marsh for their valued support of this prestigious raceday, and to thank you for your continued support of Haydock Park.

Choose your bet. ‘To win’ or ‘each-way’ are popular types of bet.
Place your bet. There are different places to bet on course; The Tote, racecourse bookmakers, betting shop or online. Each option offers a different experience.
‘To win’ is for your horse to come first. ‘Each-way’ is for your horse to come first or to be placed. It’s two bets, so ‘£2 each-way’ = £4 total bet.
Collect. Once ‘Weighed-in’ has been announced, present your betting slip and collect any winnings.

ANNUAL
MEMBERS NEWSLETTER
A very warm welcome to our first fixture of the year at Haydock Park to all Annual Badgeholders. Past luminaries of The Peter Marsh Chase such as Little Owl, Earth Summit, Jodami, and the ever charismatic Bristol De Mai have adorned its roll of honour, each contributing to the race’s reputation as a gloriously eccentric midwinter epic of equine fortitude. The Rossington Main adds considerable interest to an informative days racing. Today is one of our “Bring a Friend” days, where members can bring their friends free of charge to sample our facilities. It’s great to see so many new faces on day such as this. If any of your friends enjoy their experience today, membership is on sale. We also have private boxes, a designated members bar and seating area for your comfort and enjoyment today. Haydock

is
jam-packed full of racing action for this coming year. Next Saturday for example, badges will be traversing down the M5 aplenty to attend Festival Trials Day at Cheltenham. From Goodwood to Ayr, Haydock members will be there! I have some very sad news to bring you. Gary Winstanley, an Annual Member at Haydock Park for many years, died suddenly in early January. Gary loved coming to Haydock Park and I remember his delight at coming into the paddock and meeting Philip Robinson when presenting the winning trophy for a race. An avid collector of autographs, he will be much missed and the members are poorer with his untimely passing. All our thoughts are with his family at this time and they have penned a tribute later in this racecard. I hope you and your friends have an enjoyable and successful days racing.

The pick of a clutch of progressive and unexposed types is KILLYCARN, who impressed with the way he travelled through the race and asserted after the final flight on his handicap debut at Catterick. There should be more to come from him now that he’s faced with a stiffer test. Brookside La and PLAY SMARTER Judicial Deference bring similarly appealing profiles to the table and are feared most in that order of preference, while Below The Radar and High Dancer also need considering.

RACEHORSE & JOCKEY WELFARE The welfare of the sport’s equine and human participants is paramount to British Horseracing. All racehorses competing in Britain are stabled at the premises of trainers who are licensed by The British Horseracing Authority. The standards demanded by The BHA of licensed racehorse trainers far exceed those prescribed by animal welfare legislation. The British Horseracing Authority similarly licenses every racecourse, setting high standards for the racing surface and all parts of the course used by competitors, both human and equine. BHA Officials ensure that racecourses delivers these standards. In addition Haydock Park Racecourse employs a minimum of three veterinary surgeons, whose sole responsibility it is to provide care to the horses throughout their time at the racecourse. In the event of an incident on the racecourse, any horse affected will receive immediate treatment from the racecourse’s veterinary team. Qualified paramedics and doctors are also on hand in the case of any incident involving a jockey. If any incident occurs during a race it is routine practice for screens to be erected around the horse or jockey receiving treatment. This is to allow the veterinary or medical personnel to make a safe and accurate diagnosis and so that they may perform any treatment in a private and calm environment. If necessary, horses and riders will be transported from the course to receive further treatment at the nearest equine hospital or Accident & Emergency hospital.
