5 races per meeting
It seems all races over the Easter Period will have only 5 races (12 fixtures) + a Hunt race if they want it or if its worth having one?...perhaps all meeting should be limited to this after Easter?
or the Whole season, I see one meeting pre Christmas has only 2 x 3m races , with three 2m4f Races & a 2m bumper, with the drop in runners
it might be the way to go..

Easter meetings and - I believe - May Bank Holiday fixtures are now allowed to have five race cards. Only Lockinge has taken up that option - they have a long gap between races 2 and 3, filled by pony racing, which seemed to work quite well last year.
Of the other 11 Easter fixtures in 2027, all of which have six-race cards, eight run a Hunt, or joint-Hunts race.
