Mick has lost his mobile in case anyone thinks hes ignoring them

**Update**

There was a wrong handicap mark sent from the BHRC for RD Diamomd Wash he is a novice grade horse with one lifetime win and not a maiden.

This means that there is now 6 maidens that requested Saturday, 6 novices that requested the Saturday. And 5 ratings horses that could only run on the Saturday.

Due to this been brought to our attention within hours of the provisional card we are going to reframe Saturdays races Maiden/Novice/Ratings races to 6 maiden and 2 novices and then 4 novices and 5 ratings horses in the other.

6 maidens ( a redraw to be carried out )
6 novices ( draw to be done to ballot 2 of the 5 ( except San Rabbie burns due to same owner/ trainer at time of entry’s closing ) to join the maidens trailing 10yards the other 4 novices will ballot for 1-4 on the gate in front of the
5 horses rated 28 ( draw is unaffected and will remain the same )

The redraws will take place on the BHRC page this afternoon. Sorry for an inconvenience caused.

Full racecard will be on the BHRC website tomorrow.

Draws for the weekends racing. Startsheets to follow on the BHRC website in the coming days.

We need assistance throughout the afternoon from trainers and drivers to keep things going smoothly. Thank you.

Wow, what an entry! What an amazing 2 days we have in store this Saturday and Sunday!

As promised there are races for every type horse and every type of driver. Some unprecedented events will take place across the weekend including a free legged free for all pace in an attempt to break the track and British record for free legged pacers which is currently 2.00.0 held by Leckwith Gypsy set in August 2003.

Also for the first time ever there will be two STAGBI broodmare races with STAGBI so delighted with the support they have stepped in to sponsor both races rather than take the top 10 and return the rest.

In another first a leg of the BHRC Sire Stakes will have two divisions with 12 x 3yo Colts entering to race.

The Jessie Jones DSA race has also received a great entry which will also be two divisions and again the sponsor is willing to stage both races rather than return horses and disappoint our next generation of drivers.

The 2yo Blossom Kelly fillies event has received 11 entries. If all 11 declare on Saturday there will be 2 heats with the first 4 progressing to the final on Sunday BUT if 10 or less declare Saturday there will be a straight race final held on Saturday.

As well as the above there is a whole host of trots and other pacing races including the heats and final of the EQUINE PRODUCTS UK LTD Handicap.

Saturday qualifiers start at 12pm
4 pacing & 1 trot qualifiers/workouts

Racing 1.30pm, please note the earlier start time as 2pm was previously advertised.

Sunday racing starts at 1pm.

Pony exhibitions during racing Saturday and before racing Sunday. Please enter with Charles Inglis.
