The British Horseracing Authority has today confirmed that following the abandonment of Worcester’s fixture on Sunday 23 June, a new Jump fixture will take place at Southwell on the same day.

The race programme at Southwell will be based around the races lost at Worcester wherever possible.

The afternoon fixture will be a seven-race card, with entries closing tomorrow, Tuesday 18 June at 12 noon. Declarations will be as normal.

Race conditions, race times and further fixture information will be available via the racing admin site www2.racingadmin.co.uk shortly.
