2020 Racing Season / Covid-19 Statement
– updated 18th August)
Horse racing resumed in the UK on Monday 1st June. The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) worked closely with the Government and Public Health England providing detailed protocols for racing to be staged safely “behind closed doors” i.e. with no general public admittance.
Salisbury has so far raced 3 times behind closed doors and has been allocated 4 more behind closed doors race meetings:
The behind closed doors dates allocated are:
Friday 21st August, Thursday 3rd September, Friday 11th September & Thursday 1st October.
Our website has been updated and we have therefore removed all original fixtures as they appeared, up until the end of September. Any updates for 2021 will appear here as soon as they become available. We greatly look forward to when we can open properly again and welcome our racegoers and supporters, but we obviously don’t know when that might be. Thank you for your past support and we hope to see you again soon.
If you have any questions, please email office@salisburyracecourse.co.uk and we will respond to all queries as soon as possible.
