Is it April 1st? One day break π @BHAHorseracing and @TheRCA are working everyone involved in the industry to the bone. Between them they will be the death of racing.
Tomorrow will see the first nationwide Flat break of the season. This is the first of three days this season where no Flat racing is scheduled.
These breaks were agreed with industry stakeholders during the 2024 Fixture List process to help support participant wellbeing, with other measures including things like rider-restricted fixtures.
The Flat break follows the end of the National Hunt break and a busy winter period for riders on the Flat.
@gcunning12 Because @BHAStewards like to wait for the jockeys to get to the start. That way they can blame the jockeys rather than making the very easy decision themselves.
@BHAHorseracing@MCYeeehaaa ππΌThis is not true. 2 of my riders were told by stewards on the Saturday that they would have incurred suspensions under the new rules.
