How the experts rate the horse’s chances:
Look out for Letters: C D CD BF
= Has won at this course = Has won over this distance = Has won over this distance at this course = Was a beaten favourite
MORE INFORMATION ON THE FORM / P F U R CO B S r

BETTING EXPLAINED Select your horse. Note their name and saddlecloth number.
Decide the amount – or stake – you are comfortable to bet.
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.

RIC & MARY
HAMBRO Ric and Mary Hambro were renowned figures in the world of horse racing, particularly at Newmarket, where Ric was a key figure for many years. Ric was a keen breeder of racehorses and served as chairman of Newmarket Racecourses from 2004 to 2009. He was a longstanding member of The Jockey Club and stewarded at many racecourses across the UK. His wife, Mary, shared his passion for breeding racehorses and was a bloodstock pioneer. She was known for training horses such as Dovers Hill and Beechy Bank. Beechy Bank equalled the all-time British record starting price as her first Flat winner at a colossal 200-1 at Warwick. Beyond horse racing, Ric was the treasurer of Macmillan Cancer Support in 1983 and served as chairman of trustees from 1991 to 2001. He played a significant role in the growth of Macmillan during his chairmanship and was an excellent ambassador for the charity. After stepping down as chairman, he was elected deputy president and remained a valued supporter. The Hambro family are dedicated to supporting and maintaining the strong spirit of Newmarket through various events and initiatives. Their exemplary commitment is both appreciated and demonstrated as longstanding sponsors of the 2nd Race on today’s card, the Listed Aphrodite Fillies’ Stakes, marking their unwavering legacy in Newmarket’s racing history.

Rowley Mile War Secrets Reawakened A Place Where Champions Race & Secrets Still Lie Beneath The Turf Newmarket’s Rowley Mile is usually seen at its most electric during the Flat season, when the 2000 Guineas and 1000 Guineas define the sport’s early Classics and the best horses in the world take centre stage. It is a place of speed, pressure and precision, where history is made in seconds on turf that has hosted generations of champions. Beneath that surface lies a second story—one that, until recently, remained largely out of sight.
Anne Alexandre and Daisy Vincent, descendants of those connected to the wartime missions, stand alongside the historic Westland Lysander.
Between 1939 and 1942, the Rowley Mile was not only a racecourse; it became a covert Royal Air Force base. From this ground, 138 Squadron and 161 Squadron of the RAF’s Special Duties operations launched secret missions into occupied Europe. The work was part of Britain’s hidden wartime effort to support resistance networks behind enemy lines. Aircraft departed Newmarket on night flights into France, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia, carrying agents, supplies and equipment into territories controlled by enemy forces. These were not routine sorties. They were flown in darkness, often alone, and frequently without navigational aids that pilots could fully rely on. Every take-off carried uncertainty. Every return was earned. For decades, this role remained known only in specialist history. Now, that legacy has been formally brought back to the very ground where it once began. A Lysander Returns To The Place It Once Departed From To mark this extraordinary chapter in the racecourse’s history, a historic Westland Lysander flew over the Rowley Mile before landing on the airstrip, bringing one of the war’s most distinctive aircraft back to its origin story. The Westland Lysander was designed specifically for missions like these. Built for short take-off and landing, it could operate from rough fields in occupied territory, slipping in and out of darkness to deliver or retrieve agents in complete secrecy. The return of the Lysander to Newmarket created a rare moment where the landscape, the aircraft and the history aligned again. The same skies once used for wartime departures were filled once more by the machine that defined those operations.
A Story Now Marked In The Heart Of The Racecourse Alongside the historic fly-past, a permanent blue plaque and information board stand at the entrance to the Millennium Grandstand. The installation, delivered in partnership with Secret WW2, formally recognises the Rowley Mile’s role in RAF Special Duties operations. Placed where thousands of racegoers pass through every season, it ensures this story is no longer hidden in archives or specialist memory. It sits within the everyday life of the racecourse itself. A place known for sporting drama now also holds a permanent reminder of a different kind of risk, carried out in silence and shadow. Families, Memory And The Human Thread Behind The Missions The commemoration brought together historians, local families, and descendants of those involved in the operations, including relatives of French Resistance operatives and servicemen who trained at the Rowley Mile. Their presence highlights the immense risks taken on the ground as well as in the air, bringing the narrative back to the people behind it. These enduring family links add another layer to the story, connecting Newmarket not only to wartime strategy and operations, but to individual lives shaped by them. Together, they reflect how this history stretches far beyond Suffolk, into occupied Europe and across wartime networks built on secrecy, trust and courage. For The Jockey Club, this commemoration speaks to something deeper than simple remembrance. It is about the stewardship of places that carry more than one history at a time. The Rowley Mile is not only a sporting venue; it is a landscape shaped over centuries by very different uses, each leaving its mark on the same ground. Bringing this wartime story into public view reflects a commitment to ensuring that heritage is not hidden, simplified or separated, but understood as part of a continuous living narrative. It also reinforces the idea that racecourses are cultural spaces as well as sporting ones, embedded in national memory as much as sporting achievement. We do not just inherit places. We inherit their stories, and the responsibility to tell them.
The Blue Birds bring wartime nostalgia to life, performing for guests in front of the Westland Lysander.

CONDITIONS OF RACECOURSE
ENTRY
TO
Management reserves the right to refuse admission to, or eject from, the racecourse any person without assigning a reason. In particular, any instance of unruly behaviour, such as drunkenness, abusive conduct, singing or shouting, shall entitle the Racecourse Executive to expel the offending racegoer without prior notice. Racegoers must abide by any regulations including the observance of designated non-drinking areas. At Newmarket Racecourses we believe racing should be enjoyed by anyone and everyone. And one thing is certainly true, the more relaxed and comfortable we feel, the more likely we are to have a great time. So that’s why we’ve created one very simple piece of guidance, to come “dressed to feel your best”. We’re all unique, and no more so than in our sense of style and comfort. For some, wearing a nice sweatshirt, pair of jeans and clean trainers is what makes them feel confident and at-ease. For others, they might prefer to turn heads with a sharp suit or glamorous dress and high heels, particularly for one of our big race meetings. But whatever your tastes, the most important thing when choosing your outfit is, of course, comfort and confidence. So wear what feels right for you and will keep you feeling your best from start to finish, whatever the weather. Here’s some other useful tips and advice for making sure your time with us is as memorable as possible. Fancy dress can often add colour and fun to our racedays, but please avoid inappropriate or offensive outfits, as anything deemed vulgar or derogatory may be refused entry. We love other sports as much as anyone, but showing allegiance to a favourite club can sometimes appear antagonistic. So, to keep things simple, please refrain from wearing team kits when attending one of our racedays.
Only individuals in possession of a valid betting badge and occupying an authorised pitch are entitled to lay bets in the course of their business. Any individuals found contravening these conditions will be evicted. Members of the public may not use two-way radios, scanning receivers etc, for any purpose at the racecourse.
EMERGENCY NOTICE In an event of an emergency please be guided by our security stewards and by messages you will see and hear around the racecourse. We would advise that you keep your personal belongings with you at all times. In the event of an evacuation please do as requested by Newmarket Racecourses Management and security staff. They will direct you to a safe place. Do not attempt to regain access to buildings.
FEEDBACK We are always pleased to hear from our customers and are grateful for any feedback you can provide about your visit today. There are short contact forms available online at thejockeyclub.co.uk/ newmarket and we value your comments.
THE COURSE IS FOR HORSES Please keep off the track. The track is for horses, their jockeys and stable staff, please keep them and yourselves safe by remaining inside the barriers. Anyone trespassing on the track will be: Liable to arrest and prosecution; Ejected immediately; Banned from all future Newmarket race meetings; May face a nationwide racecourse ban.
HEALTH AND SAFETY NOTICE The Racecourse would be grateful if you would observe all Health & Safety requirements whilst you are at Newmarket Racecourses. We would request that only those that are disabled use the disabled viewing area and that parents keep a close eye on all children and prevent them from climbing the running rails and getting on to the actual racecourse. We would also like to remind racegoers that we do have a first aid room. Should anyone require any assistance please speak to the nearest steward.
IMPORTANT
NOTICES
NOTICES Weights, Pedigrees, Trainers’ Names, Descriptions, Performances and Values of races have been added for the convenience of the Public, but are subject to alteration. All horses must parade in the Parade Ring except by permission of the Stewards, but in all cases must pass through the Ring on the way to the Post.
PARADE RING ACCESS In the interests of safety, access to the parade ring is strictly limited to Owners and Trainers with runners in the race, British Horseracing Authority Officials and Racecourse Officials who are on duty at the meeting and Emergency Service Personnel. Those people holding badges or accreditation that allow access to the Parade Ring are asked to refrain from entering this area unless it is absolutely necessary in the course of their business.
PHOTOGRAPHY Racegoers may take photographs for private purposes in the public enclosures. Under no circumstances may photographs taken on the racecourse be used for publication without prior accreditation being obtained. Flash photography is not permitted anywhere in the Parade Ring or Winner’s Enclosure areas, or anywhere in the close vicinity of horses. The official photographer is John Hoy. To see any of his images please visit www.hoycubed.com
HBLB PRIZE MONEY The Horserace Betting Levy Board (HBLB) has allocated £77.1m in prizemoney for 2026. Since 2000 HBLB has invested £1.5bn in prize money to support the British horseracing industry.
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 deliver these standards. In addition Newmarket Racecourses 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.
