CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL NEWS: GLENFARCLAS CROSS COUNTRY CHASE ABANDONED

Press Release 13th March 2024 Cheltenham

Style Wednesday 13th March  

Following 11mm of rainfall throughout yesterday, there has been no improvement in the conditions on the Cross-Country course and with areas of the track unraceable, the Glenfarclas Cross-Country Chase has sadly been abandoned.

The forecast for the remainder of the week continues to look unsettled, with further showers likely on both Thursday and Friday. There will therefore be insufficient improvement to the Cross-Country course by Friday 15th March, and the decision has been taken not to reschedule the Glenfarclas Cross-Country Chase at The Festival.

As a result of the abandonment of the 5th race today, the revised race times for Wednesday 13th March are as follows:

  • Race 1: 1345
  • Race 2: 1430
  • Race 3: 1515
  • Race 4: 1600
  • Race 5: NA
  • Race 6: 1650
  • Race 7: 1730

The Going on the Old & New course is Soft, Heavy in Places.
