04 Aug 2020 ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ Features Racecourse

The fixture scheduled to take place at Great Yarmouth on Friday 7 August will be transferred to Wolverhampton racecourse. 

This is as a precautionary measure whilst further assessment takes place to assess a portion of the racing surface in the home straight following a faller at the fixture on 3 August.

The fixture at Wolverhampton will be an evening eight-race card. The races will be as close as possible to those originally scheduled at Great Yarmouth.

Entries will close on Wednesday 5 August at 12 noon with 24-hour declarations on Thursday 6 August. Race conditions, times and further fixture information will be available via the Racing Admin site Ìý²õ³ó´Ç°ù³Ù±ô²â.

ARC Racing Director, Jon Pullin, said:

““Following yesterday’s mid racing incident at Great Yarmouth, we have undertaken a thorough inspection of the whole track with senior racecourse officials and the ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ Inspectorate.

“Whilst nothing has come to light from this inspection, including any false ground, we will, in conjunction with ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½, move the fixture scheduled for Friday 7 August to Wolverhampton, before we resume racing at Great Yarmouth on Tuesday 25 August.”
