๐จ BREAKING: From May 20, the BHA will only allow horses from licensed training yards on to a racecourse on raceday in a bid to combat the rise in equine influenza cases.
Following the decision all upcoming hunter chase races, including the hunter chase evening at Stratford on May 29, have been cancelled.
