British racing will not go ahead on Monday 19 September for the funeral of Her Late Majesty The Queen.

The British Horse Racing Authority (BHA) said “This will give everyone involved in British racing the opportunity to mourn Her Late Majesty's passing and offer thanks for her contribution to our sport and the nation”.

The UK horse racing fixtures on Monday 19 have therefore be cancelled.

Further information will be shared with British participants, racecourses and racegoers in the coming days.

Racing will take place as scheduled throughout the remainder of the intervening period.
