Lingfield Park Hurdle Races abandoned, Friday 4th January


  • Existing Steeple Chases and National Hunt Flat Race permitted to divide
  • 6 race card planned

Following an inspection and after consultation with the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) Inspectorate, Lingfield Park Racecourse has been forced to abandon the three Hurdle Races scheduled for Friday, 4th January, due to the Hurdles course being waterlogged in places.
In response, the BHA has permitted the division of two of the existing races to create an all-Chase and National Hunt Flat Race card. Whichever two races receive the most declarations at the overnight declaration stage will be permitted to divide.
The first race will now take place at 1.20pm.
