In accordance with Article 111 of the Rules of Racing (Entrainement d’un cheval entrainé hors de France du Code des Courses au Galop), any horse trained outside of France and entered in a public race in France must be duly declared by its trainer via the France Galop website (Site Pro) at least 15 days before the race the horse will be entered. From now on, if a horse is not declared via the France Galop website at least 15 days prior to the race, the entry will be invalidated. The explanatory guide, can be emailed (in English) if so required and will be available in the next few days. The date from which a horse is authorized to race will be visible in “My training list” section.
The BHA has confirmed that a restriction on overseas-trained runners in Class 5 & 6 Flat Handicaps and Classified Flat Races has been removed. The restriction will be lifted from the end of the turf season in Britain, affecting races staged from Monday 11th November onwards.

In view of the requirement for one stable for every declared runner at racemeetings, Horse Racing Ireland would like to remind Trainers that every effort will be made to ensure we can obtain the maximum number of runners that the stable capacity limit will allow at all racemeetings. Trainers are asked to note that field size limits in races are being altered right up to declaration time (10am) to maximise the number of runners each day based on stable capacity.
