Thorpe Lodge

Thorpe Lodge bends have been moved to fresh virgin ground, the course has a  good grass cover,  with irrigation  taking place on a daily basis. This consistent regular watering is expected to produce safe racing ground in accordance with previous years. 

The irrigation will continue until the evening prior to the Point-to-Point (unless there is significant rainfall)

Further “going" updates to follow during the week ahead in advance of the Easter Monday fixture. These will be placed in the header above the logo as usual.
