Only one horse left in at the final declaration stage?

But it couldn't have been a proper race to begin with as it is scheduled only 15 minutes after the previous race?

They probably just changed the time as there will be no betting. Are they actually going to make the horse run though?

On ATR website it says theres Just the one runner because of something to do with a protest about race tariffs.

Skysports reported on the 'walkover' the other day saying that pirizemoney is 6k when it should have been more than twice that. Seems a bit mad that it still has to run but I guess it's the rules.

Taken from Wikipedia.....


The word originates from horseracing in the United Kingdom, where an entrant in a one-horse race run under Jockey Club rules has to "walk over" the course before being awarded victory.
