Read more about the process we go through to rearrange fixtures and race meetings.
- Wincanton - All-Hurdle Card Now Programmed for Wednesday May 11th, 2011
- Lack of rain prompts abandonment of Steeple Chases
- Additional Hurdle races to close at noon on Saturday, May 7th
Wincanton Racecourse is currently experiencing fast ground conditions with only a small prospect of rainfall scheduled before its next fixture on May 11th. As a consequence, the Clerk Of The Course, in conjunction with the BHA Inspectorate, has been forced to abandon the steeple chases programmed for this day.
Barry Johnson, Clerk Of The Course at Wincanton, explained: "Owing to the prolonged dry spell, Wincanton has all but used its reservoir of water. We have enough remaining to put on 8mm on both courses or 16mm concentrated on one course. With this in mind, and after consultation with Richard Linley (Inspector of Courses), we have decided to abandon the Steeple Chases and concentrate all our efforts on the Hurdle course. We would like to thank Richard and the BHA Racing Department for their prompt action."
In response, the British Horseracing Authority's Racing Department has created three extra hurdle races to take the place of the originally programmed Steeple Chases.
The additional Hurdle races will close at noon on Saturday, May 7th. All the races now due to take place will still be subject to declarations by 10:00am on Tuesday, May 10th.
