Weltnachrichten – AU – Horse races will continue to be held despite the new ban

Leeds United’s transfer priorities are thanks to Marcelo Bielsa’s penchant for versatility in the left and middle areas

During the first national ban in March, all professional sport was suspended and racing was closed on March 1. June successfully resumed behind closed doors and under strict protocols.

It has since continued under the tiered restrictions in force across the country and the UK Horse Racing Authority confirmed that it would continue to do so.

A statement from the BHA said: “After the broadcast that evening, we can confirm that the race will continue behind closed doors during the upcoming national suspension.

« Participation will be limited to those who are essential for making fixtures and match, and strict adherence to UK racing’s Covid-19 protocols will continue to be required for all participants. ”

Earlier in the day Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon announced a lockdown in Scotland, but Scottish Racing – the agency for Ayr, Hamilton Park, Kelso, Musselburgh due to start Thursday, and Perth – moved to calm down any fears.

A tweet from Scottish Racing stated: “Following today’s announcement that Scotland will again comply with full Covid restrictions, @ScotGov has confirmed that the race in Scotland can continue behind closed doors. ”

On the track, the Cheltenham Festival hero Imperial Aura is the star of 11 entries for the Unibet Silviniaco Conti Chase in Kempton on Saturday.

Kim Bailey’s indictment won the now-defunct novices’ handicap chase at Prestbury Park in March and continued in the same fashion that season – it won the Colin Parker Memorial Chase in Carlisle before going to Ascot in the 1965 Second class chase impressed.

The eight-year-old competes with last year’s winner Min for the Ryanair Chase in Cheltenham and will improve his claims in the two-and-a-half-mile Grade Two competition this weekend.

Nicky Henderson has listed the 2019 winner Not Notch, as well as Mengli Khan and Mister Fisher who won the rescheduled Peterborough Chase in Cheltenham on his last appearance.

Paul Nicholls saddled Frodon 12 months ago to win and could be represented by Master Tommytucker this year.

Other hopes are Riders Onthe Storm, trained by Nigel Twiston-Davies, Ann Hamilton’s stable star Nuts Well and Tom Georges Peterborough Chase Third Clondaw Castle.

Nine horses fight for the Dornan Engineering Relkeel Hurdle, which was rescued and replaced from the abandoned New Year’s game in Cheltenham.

Georges Summerville Boy could bid for two straight wins in the race, Bailey has made the fourth Younevercall of the Long Walk Hurdle, Nicholls could lead McFabulous and Thomas Darby could replace Olly Murphy.

The Unibet Lanzarote Hurdle is a race with a lot of history. An entry of 31 includes four Henderson inmates in Call Me Lord, Champagne Platinum, Glynn, and The Cashel Man, while Nicholls has an interesting couple in Solo and Amour De Nuit.

Meanwhile, Paul Nicholls’ duo of Yala Enki and Truckers Lodge remains at the top of the weights for the newly planned Coral Welsh Grand National in Chepstow on Saturday.

Yala Enki has been third in the last two seasons and is on a career-high handicap after a rousing comeback in Cheltenham when Ramses De Teillee, who could resist again, narrowly contested. Yala Enki failed in the mug chase last time.

Truckers Lodge demonstrated its aptitude for marathon driving when it finished second this past season and won the Midlands National in Uttoxeter just before the race was suspended in March. Evan Williams’ seven-year-old Secret Reprieve had been the pre-post favorite since the last time he won a test for that race. He only carries a £ 4 fine for this achievement instead of running away from his new brand.

Cup Chase winner Vieux Lion Rouge and Scottish national hero Joe Farrell from 2018 are the two oldest runners in the race at 12 years old.

Lord Du Mesnil, who was placed at the Cheltenham Festival in March, and Venetia Williams’ Cloudy Glen are more on the head of the weights.

Springfield Fox, The Two Amigos, who did well in the race 12 months ago, and Christmas in April are also among the 19 confirmations.

Sandy Thomson reports that the stable Seeyouatmidnight is in good shape after his heartwarming success in Sandown on Saturday.

Just one day after the official 13. On his 50th birthday, the once retired gelding proved the fire still burns brightly with a thrilling win in the Veterans’ Chase series finals under Grand National winning jockey Ryan Mania.

« We’ll see what the handicapper does. He won a veterans hunt and Crosspark (runner-up) is unlikely to be particularly disabled.
