Matthew Lohn has been announced as the new Chairman of Newmarket Racecourses. Matthew succeeds William Wyatt, who has been Chairman since 2017.

A qualified doctor and solicitor, Matthew practises as a partner in Fieldfisher’s Public and Regulatory law group where he has worked for nearly 30 years. He was the firm’s Senior Partner until 2019 He has wide experience in sports law and has acted as a chair for the disciplinary panels of the British Horseracing Authority and Rugby Football Union as well as the National Anti-Doping Panel Having served on the Committee of Newmarket Racecourses since 2019, he has an excellent understanding of the racecourses’ operations and the strategic priorities of the business

Matthew Lohn said: “It is an honour to be appointed Chairman of Newmarket Racecourses. Newmarket is obviously at the very centre of the sport with its rich history and tradition.”

“I would like to pay tribute to William Wyatt for his outstanding Chairmanship since 2017 His guidance and leadership through the COVID-19 pandemic was outstanding and I am very grateful to be taking over the Chairmanship with both the Rowley Mile and the July Course continuing to thrive.”

William Wyatt said: “It has been a great privilege to be Chairman of Newmarket Racecourses and to be so closely involved with top-quality flat racing. I would like to thank all of the team who work so hard to deliver Newmarket’sracingfestivalsaswellasmusicandothercorporateevents.”

“Matthew’s depth of experience in racing and other sporting jurisdictions will serve the Racecourses well and I would like to wish both him and the team all the best for the future.”

The Jockey Club would like to thank our Group Partners for their support in 2024

As a leading distributor of horse feed, bedding and supplements in the greater GCC area, I am once again immensely proud to support the Jockey Club at Newmarket Racecourses for the 2024 season.

Newmarket is credited as being where thoroughbred racing first started which is why so many from every corner of the world assemble and appreciate The Rowley Mile and The July Course.

As ever, the enthusiasm of Sophie Able and her team at Newmarket translates into a top class service for Owners, Trainers, Jockeys and Stable Staff and for that we are deeply grateful.

I would like to wish all those visiting Newmarket throughout the 2024 season, the very best of luck.

Have a wonderful day at the races today.

THE YEAR WE SAID GOODBYE TO FRANKIE…OR NOT?

CAN CITY OF TROY CONQUER ALL IN 2024?

As another new season begins at Newmarket today with day one of the bet365 Craven Meeting, it is an appropriate moment to reflect on the amazing year that was 2023 on the Rowley Mile and July Course.

Although it did not ultimately prove to be correct, when 2023 began it was expected to be Frankie Dettori’s final year in the saddle.

Now based in the USA, where he recently rode a six-timer at Santa Anita Park, if 2023 does in fact prove to be the last time Frankie ever rode at Newmarket then he could not have signed off in better fashion.

A fourth QIPCO 2000 Guineas came his way courtesy of Chaldean while he ended the year on the Rowley Mile with a Group One Virgin Bet Sun Chariot Stakes success aboard Inspiral The sole Group One race Frankie never won was the My Pension Expert July Cup, the highlight of The July Festival, and if he does make a return to the UK over the summer, it would be no surprise if he tried to correct that omission

Last year’s July Cup went to Shaquille, who provided one of the great stories of the season Trained in North Yorkshire by Julie Camacho and her husband Steve Brown, the son of Charm Spirit began the year with success in a handicap at the QIPCO Guineas Meeting which was quickly followed by a Listed victory at Newbury Despite missing the break on both occasions, he then progressed to win two Group One races in succession, with the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot preceding his July Cup success

It is now 13 years since the great Frankel’s breathtaking QIPCO 2000 Guineas success One horse being spoken about in similar terms after his two-year-old career is City Of Troy Owned by Sue Magnier, Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith, the son of 2018 US Triple Crown hero Justify was unbeaten in three starts in 2023 - two of which came at Newmarket

After an initial success at the Curragh on July 1st, the Aidan O’Brien-trained colt made the trip to Newmarket a fortnight later when he earned plenty of praise with a six and a half lengths victory in the Group Two bet365 Superlative Stakes

Ridden on all of his starts to date by Ryan Moore, City Of Troy ended 2023 with an all the way success in Britain’s best juvenile contest, the Group One Darley Dewhurst Stakes on Dubai Future Champions Day on the Rowley Mile. With talk of a Triple Crown attempt in 2024, City Of Troy could be the horse to break the 54-year wait since Nijinsky won the 2000 Guineas, Derby and St Leger.

Talking of the Classics, this week we could see QIPCO 1000 Guineas contenders Regal Jubilee and Dance Sequence take their chance in Wednesday’s Group Three Lanwades

Stud Nell Gwyn Stakes Both fillies were winners at Newmarket last year, with Godolphin’s unbeaten Dance Sequence signing off the year with success in the Group Three Oh So Sharp Stakes while Regal Jubilee scored on Newmarket’s final day of the season in November with victory in the Listed Montrose Stakes

Although City Of Troy is expected to go straight to the QIPCO 2000 Guineas, his Dewhurst Stakes form looks set to be tested this week with some of those who finished in behind him, including third-placed Eben Shaddad, set to line up in the Group Three bet365

Craven Stakes on Thursday

An early-season 2-y-o novice that usually produces a few useful types and the betting often points the way. HALLASAN and Al Qudra both make plenty of appeal on paper for red-hot Charlie Appleby and William Buick’s mount gets the vote before market clues. Bretton Wood, and Arran, from a yard that had an impressive 2-y-o winner at Kempton last week, are a couple of others to note

Last year’s winner DREAM COMPOSER is 1lb lower this time around and made a satisfactory reappearance at Doncaster, so he makes most appeal, with Navello also considered having scored at Wolverhampton last time. Makanah has a decent record fresh and can’t be ruled out.

A typically warm-looking 3-y-o handicap for this meeting. GRAND KARAT ran well when placed behind some very useful sorts on his final 2 outings last season so an opening mark of 80 could prove generous. Break The Bank should have more to come on the back of his impressive Kempton handicap debut success and is second choice ahead of Godolphin’s Broadway Act, a course winner at 2.

PLAY SMARTER

Not an easy puzzle to solve, with several making significant appeal. BENACRE’s form dipped following a promising start to last season but he has edged down the weights as a result and there was plenty of encouragement in his reappearance third on the all-weather He gets the nod ahead of last year’s winner Bopedro and unexposed handicap debutant Slipofthepen. Aerion Power and Majestic are effective in these big-field scenarios and should be in the mix, while Bodorgan is also worth a second look.

SPUN TO GOLD quickly got back on track when winning a 5-runner maiden at Chelmsford in October and with his pedigree suggesting he will go on improving this year, Andrew Balding’s charge makes a good deal of appeal on return/handicap debut. Pressure’s On, a winner on his final start as a 2-y-o, is also worth a look partnered by Ryan Moore. Runaround Sioux and Our Havana are others to note
