Pointing returns to the Midlands area behind closed doors, on Monday 29th March, after a lengthy lay-off. Storm Dennis was battering Brocklesby Park for our last meeting in February 2020. We have lost many good friends in that time and I’m sure we will think of absent friends before this new season begins. Last month we learned of the death…

We look forward to the new year in the hope of good sport in the Midlands Area.
The Revesby Races Team wish to assure you that it is doing everything possible to hold the 2021 meeting at Revesby Park on Sunday 10th January 2021! The 2020/21 point to point season started earlier this autumn with racing occurring behind closed doors with great success. The systems and protocols put in place were agreed safe by Inspectors. However, like…
