The penultimate meeting of Wetherby’s season over Jumps takes place next Thursday (May 22), when the seven-race programme begins at 2-00 p.m.  

The feature races are The Racing UK Anywhere Available Now Handicap Chase (a contest for stayers over three miles and one furlong) and The Watch Racing UK On Sky 432 Handicap Hurdle over the extended two miles. 

Locally-based Pristine Cars support a contest for novice hurdlers over two and a half miles. 

Going into this meeting, last year’s Grand National-winning trainer, Sue Smith continues to lead the way to once again be the leading trainer of the season at Wetherby, holding the narrowest of margins over another former Grand National-winning trainer, Donald McCain. Brian Hughes is the top rider so far this term, while Jonathan England is the course’s leading Conditional jockey going into Thursday’s meeting. 

Wetherby’s final meeting of the season takes place the following Thursday evening (29 May) – The Yorkshire Post Ladies’ Evening, starting at 6-00 p.m.
