The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) has today announced that an additional fixture will take place at Wolverhampton on Friday 1 February.

This is due to an adverse weather forecast threatening Turf racing on Friday, during the current spell of cold weather.

The afternoon fixture will be programmed as a six-race card, with the possibility for two races to divide if required.

Entries will close tomorrow, Wednesday 30 January at 12 noon, with declarations on Thursday 31 January by 10am.

The deadline for jockey bookings deadline for all races taking place on Friday 1 February, will be delayed until 1pm on Thursday 31 January.

The race programme, times and further fixture information for Wolverhampton will be available via the Racing Admin site www2.racingadmin.co.uk shortly.
