Following the abandonment of racing at Cheltenham on Tuesday, January 1st, the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) is pleased to confirm that the 32Red Levy Board Dipper Novices’ Steeple Chase (Class 1) (Grade 2) will be transferred to Sandown on Saturday, January 5th, 2013. This is an additional race which now forms part of a seven race card.
Original entries will not stand and trainers wishing to make an entry must do so by noon on Thursday, January 3rd. Should the race receive fewer than four overnight declarations it may potentially be cancelled.
The BHA would like to express its thanks to the Levy Board, Sandown Racecourse and 32Red for their help in staging this race.
