Kempton surpasses Newcastle race entries

A TOTAL of 454 horses have been entered for Tuesday’s meeting at Kempton, which is scheduled to be one of two fixtures on the second day of racing’s resumption.

Newcastle’s opening meeting on Monday attracted 369 entries, but that tally has been surpassed by Kempton, which will stage a maximum nine-race card, if the British Horseracing Authority gets the necessary go-ahead from government.

The British Stallion Studs EBF Maiden over a mile for three-year-olds has drawn 97 contenders, with Sir Michael Stoute, John Gosden and Charlie Appleby among the trainers with entries.
