13 January 2010 Sheriff Hutton postpone again, Ampton/Barbury abandon
by Weatherbys Chase Staff
The already-postponed Yorkshire Area Point-to-Point Club at Sheriff Hutton has become the latest fixture to fall foul of the seemingly endless wintry weather.
The Yorkshire Area season-opener, already postponed from its initial date of January 17th until January 24th, has been forced to postpone again due to the ongoing weather conditions.
Earlier today we heard that the Dunston Harriers at Ampton has been abandoned and will not rearrange, while the Point-to-Point Owners & Riders Club two-day meeting also announced on Wednesday night that they will not be seeking a new date.
Snow at Dunthrop has forced the Heythrop to put their meeting back a week, and this fixture will now take place on Sunday January 31st, with entries closing at 8pm on Sunday January 24th
The Silverton at Black Forest Lodge has postponed until Saturday March 27th. Entries will now close on Sunday March 21st, and racing will now start at 1pm, not 12noon as initially advertised.
