From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cartmel Racecourse is a small racecourse in the village of Cartmel, now in the Ceremonial County of Cumbria, historically in Lancashire. Meetings are held on the May and August Bank Holidays. Although the racecourse is small, it is noted as having a four furlong run-in, the longest in Britain. For a small racecourse Cartmel attracts relatively huge crowds of 20/25,000.

The earliest written account of racing at Cartmel dates back to 1856. The course was supported by local landowners. Until World War II it was a very small course featuring primarily amateur jockeys, but in the second half of the 20th century the racing programme was expanded and professionalised. The course is situated on the Holker Estate, and in 1998 Lord Cavendish bought out the previous management team.

Cartmel was the site of the Gay Future 'coup' in 1974 that involved switching horses before a race and relying on the lack of communications at the course. It is also known amongst racegoers for the track leading up to and away from the course.

CARTMEL 4th race Grand Veterans´ Handicap Chase (CLASS 3) 6.000m GOOD.

This longer trip, and the low weights might help the lazy short, ONIZ TIPTOES to wake up, and get competitive in this Veterans' affair.

Certainly nothing to trust fully here, due the Yo-Yo company...
