WELCOME

Welcome to The BetGoodwin Easter Festival

WelcometoPlumptonRacecourse,andfromalltheteam,wewishyouaveryHappyEaster.

Today’s 7 race card is key within our fixture list and not only offers a fabulous day out but also over £185,000 in prize money. The feature races take centre stage with the BetGoodwin Sussex Champion Chase, worth £65,000, alongside the highly anticipated BetGoodwin Sussex National, rescheduled for today after the disappointment of losing our January fixture.

The supporting card promises equally compelling action, and we extend our sincere thanks to our partners, BetGoodwin, for their valued support. We are also grateful to longstanding partners Southern Cranes who are sponsoring a race today as well as Peter Savill who is sponsoring a race in memory of his dear friend Roy Reeve, and to the friendsandfamilyofGordonandAngelaAshdownforsponsoringaraceintheirhonour.

Easter Monday is always one of the liveliest days of the season at Plumpton, with both enclosures open and a full programme of entertainment. At the heart of the course, accessible to all racegoers, you’ll find a whole load of family fun. From a fun fair to complimentary attractions including a wall trampoline, climbing wall, Zorb balls, petting zoo, donkey rides, face painting and more, there is something to delight visitors of all ages. With seven exciting races and entertainment for all, today promises to be a memorable occasion for the whole family.

Looking ahead, we are nearing our final two fixtures of the season: Sussex Day on Sunday 19th April, followed by our grand finale, Ladies Day, on Sunday 10th May. We hope to welcome you back for both of these fantastic events, and you’ll find a special advance booking offer within today’s racecard.

Have a lovely day at Plumpton, Heart Of Our Community.

Bit - A piece of metal that sits in the horse’s mouth and is attached to the bridle and reins.

Blinkers - A type of headgear fitted to a horse that limits its field of vision, mainly from each side. Blinkers are designed to help horses concentrate in races.

Bridle - A piece of tack that fits over a horse’s head and to which the bit and reins are attached.

Bumper - Also known as a National Hunt Flat race, this race has no obstacles. Used as a way to give horses race experience before tackling hurdles and fences.

Chase - A race run over fences.

Cheekpieces - A form of headgear which consists of pieces of sheepskin placed on either side of the bridle and performs a similar job as blinkers in helping the horse to concentrate.

Clerk of the course - The person responsible for the overall management of a racecourse on a raceday.

Handicap - A type of race in which horses carry different weights depending on their overall rating, which is determined by the handicapper.

Hood - A type of headgear fitted over the horse’s head to cover its ears and muffle the noise of a raceday.

Hurdles - The obstacles jumped during a hurdle race. They are smaller than fences and therefore take less jumping. Sometimes referred to as flights.

Length - The length of a horse from its nose to the start of its tail, and a measurement used to describe the distances between horses at the finish line

Maiden - A horse who has yet to win a race.

Neck - A measurement used to describe a winning margin in a close finish.

Under starter’s orders - Before a race, the starter brings the field of horses into order to prepare them for the start of the race.

Weighed in - Every horse in a race has to carry a certain amount of weight. To ensure it does, all jockeys must weight in/out both before and after a race. The ‘weighed in’ announcement made after the race means the result stands.

Having struck at Wincanton in January, LOCAL DERBY put a Fontwell mishap behind him when returning to winning ways at Exeter and Chris Gordon’s charge is expected to defy a further 6lb rise. If there is to be a fly in the ointment it might be handicap-debutant Lola De Magny, who has shown promise in a couple of maidens so far. All Authorized is also noted.

SELECTION: Local Derby

Danger: Lola De Magny

The classy veteran EDWARDSTONE proved that he was still in love with the game when landing the Silviniaco Conti at Kempton before posting an understandably lesser effort in the Ascot Chase when last seen. Top weight should be no burden for Alan King’s 12-year-old and he is fancied to get the better of progressive six-year-old Secret Des Dieux, while Kotmask can chase the pair home.

SELECTION: Edwardstone

Danger: Secret Des Dieux

LORIKO made little impact in a Hereford handicap in December but the son of Cokoriko boasts an official rating of 123 and is likely to take all the beating if returning to the form that saw him chase home the subsequent Grade 2 winner Kripticjm at Ascot in November. Flash Man shaped with promise at Kempton a fortnight ago and looks the main threat on the back of that performance, while the market can guide with regards to the Gary and Josh Moore duo Tetsworth and Oblemenko.

SELECTION: Loriko

Danger: Flash Man

MINELLA JURY looked sure to contest the finish at Doncaster last time but fell at the last hurdle. The son of Jukebox Jury is one to keep on the right side of on only his second start in a handicap. Mount Anglesby held off a strong challenge by Kel Du Large (second) to win at Warwick. That pair are hard to separate, but High Fibre may emerge as a bigger threat having been headed close home at Ludlow a week ago.

SELECTION: Minella Jury

Danger: High Fibre

Last year’s winner Invincible Nao cannot be ruled with any confidence, while stablemate and recent Newbury winner Havaila also holds solid claims. However, SEA INVASION ticks plenty of boxes. Anthony Honeyball’s charge has his preferred fast ground and landed a brace over 3m1f here last season. Only 2lb higher than his latest success, another bold bid is anticipated. Rivers Corner and Planned Paradise arrive in fine form and are not out of it either.

SELECTION: Sea Invasion

Danger: Invincible Nao

YASMINA made a winning return after wind surgery with a gritty effort to overcome interference when scoring over C&D most recently. As that was also her debut in a handicap, a modest 3lb rise looks very manageable. A Tickatickatiming goes well here and is competitively weighted for an event of this nature. However, Risk It All is less exposed at this stage and he could prove to be a bigger danger.

SELECTION: Yasmina

Danger: Risk It All

KAMILLE AU KANADA went straight into a Listed race on her Rules debut at Sandown and this nicely-bred mare should have benefited greatly from the experience. Having finished first past the post in both point-to-point starts (albeit disqualified on the first occasion) the future looks bright for this 72,000-pound purchase. Fellow point recruit Mint Approved wasn’t beaten far on his NH introduction and that C&D experience puts him above Hitintheheadlines and Cheap Sandwiches on the shortlist.

SELECTION: Kamille Au Kanada

Danger: Mint Approved

LOCAL DERBY quickly put his Fontwell mishap behind him when going in again at Exeter 3 weeks ago, in the process looking well suited by the step up to a staying trip. Chris Gordon’s 6-y-o appeals as the type to go on progressing in handicaps and earns the vote to make it 3 wins from his last 4 starts. Mild Magic on the back of her third over shorter here 6 weeks ago and handicap debutante Lola de Magny may emerge as the chief threats.

Despite failing to complete the hat-trick, GRAND CONQUEROR improved again when second at Kempton in February and with the winner that day following up in emphatic fashion next time, that form looks very solid. Minella Jury would probably have won at Doncaster had he not fallen late on and he’s a danger, along with High Fibre.
