The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) has today confirmed an additional all-weather fixture at Wolverhampton on Thursday 9 April.

This fixture has been added following the abandonment of Chelmsford City’s fixture on the same day.

Wolverhampton will be staging similar races to those originally programmed at Chelmsford City, although some distances and prize-money values differ. Full details are available on Racing Admin.

In addition, two of the races that were abandoned from Chelmsford City’s fixture on Friday 3 April have been rescheduled:

• The Class 2 Mile Series Final Handicap will be run at Southwell on 7 April (entries to be made by 12noon tomorrow, declarations on Sunday along with the rest of the card)
• The Class 2 6f 3yo Conditions Stakes will be run at Wolverhampton on 10 April.

Both races will have a prize fund of £30,000, which has been made possible following contributions from the Horseracing Betting Levy Board (HBLB) and the BHA Development Fund. With the addition of these two races, no races will be permitted to divide on either card.

The BHA is grateful to the HBLB for its contribution to the funding of prize money for these fixture changes, and to the racecourses for agreeing to host.
