Following recent abandonments and with the current weather threatening further fixtures, the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) has programmed a card of Jumpers’ Bumpers to take place at Southwell on Thursday, March 28th.

The seven race card will be made up of events primarily aimed at Steeple Chasers and Hurdlers.

Ordinarily, under the Rules of Racing, horses which have run in Steeple Chases or Hurdle Races are not eligible to run in National Hunt Flat races, but given the recent disruption to the fixture list, the BHA has modified the Rules with regard to this fixture.

The track will be power harrowed before being rolled to produce ‘standard to slow’ conditions, with the aim of broadly replicating turf
conditions described as the ‘slow side of good’.

The races close at noon on Tuesday, March 26th, with declarations to run to be made by 10.00am on Wednesday, March 27th.
