º£½Ç´óÉñ the transfer of Chelmsford City’s next three fixtures to Southwell

15 Apr 2026 BHA Features Racing/Fixtures

º£½Ç´óÉñ (BHA) can confirm that the next three fixtures scheduled to take place at Chelmsford City Racecourse on Thursday 23 April, Thursday 30 April and Thursday 7 May will now be held at Southwell.

The new cards at all three fixtures will replicate as closely as possible to the originally scheduled race programme. Full information will follow shortly on Racing Admin, but in the meantime the BHA can confirm new details for the running of the Cardinal Stakes and Chelmer Stakes.

The Cardinal Stakes will retain its date as part of the Southwell fixture on 23 April, however due to the nature of rescheduling a Conditions race such as this, it will be run for a reduced prize fund of £30,000.

The Listed Chelmer Stakes, originally scheduled for 30 April, will now be run at Goodwood on Saturday 2 May at its original value of £60,000, which is supported by ITV coverage of the race.

We are grateful to the racecourses involved and the Horserace Betting Levy Board for their contributions to prize money.
