All ponies attending MUST be compliant with the current Pony Club minimum vaccination requirements and must be accompanied by their passport. What vaccinations do I need to pony race at Haydock Park on 12th May 2024? The Area 4 Pony Club Pony Race Day will be held more than 8 days before the next British Horseracing Authority fixture at Haydock Park Racecourse. This means that ponies on annual vaccinations (so long as they have been properly adhered to and the right time intervals were followed between all vaccinations in the course) may race so long as they have received a booster for Equine Influenza between 12th November 2023 and 4th May 2024. However please be aware that entries will close by 30th April and ponies whose vaccinations are not compliant at this stage will automatically be withdrawn and no refund given. The above rule re vaccinations may NOT apply to all Pony Club Race Days and we strongly advise you to follow the BHA Requirements which will allow you to race at every race day this year without incident.
