THIS weekend brings the curtain down on a short but sweet season on the Yorkshire circuit as this year due to Covid the Zetland and Cleveland Hunts will hold a joint meeting at Witton Castle.
Meetings will continue up and down the country until early June, including a meeting at Hexham two weeks this weekend. A healthy number of entries have been received with the first race starting at 2pm and watering will commence on Thursday where necessary.
The meeting will be held behind closed doors, therefore no public will be permitted to attend.
The first race is a Conditions race for horses that have not won under rules or in open company for the last two seasons. Argot is a former course winner and was an easy winner last time at Shelfield Park, but is best suited to easy trips. Caviar d'Allen was third in a very hot race at Garthorpe recently and still looks on the upgrade, Dressedforsuccess was a restricted winner last time but this would take a career best, whilst Inca Gold made an encouraging point debut at the Bedale when third to Seefood.
