Following an inspection and after consultation with the British Horseracing Authority’s (BHA) Inspectorate, Fontwell Park Racecourse has been forced to abandon its fixture scheduled for Friday 8th November due to waterlogging and the forecast of further rain.

In response, the BHA has sanctioned an additional fixture at Southwell on the same day. Wherever possible, similar races to those originally programmed at Southwell have been added. Entries for the existing races at Fontwell will not stand.

Entries for all races must be made by noon on Wednesday 6th November, with declarations to run made by 10am on Thursday 7th November.

An outline of the day follows:

12:40 22572 The 32Red.Com Mares’ Novices’ Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 4)
1:10 22575 The Warwick Davis Insurance Consultants Ltd Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 5)
