The ground will be too heavy for Gran Luna at Taunton on Tuesday so we still await our first runner of 2021 - read more in the weekly update.

Last week we considered the need for the mares and fillies sex allowance and whether it was fair. Today, we tackle the even more controversial subject of the female jockeys allowance, a topic re-ignited by the decision of the French racing authorities in 2017 to introduce a weight allowance of 2kg for female riders (reduced to 1.5kg in March 2018).

The last day of January, where is the year going ! With case numbers dropping and vaccines soaring it feels we are only a few months away from seeing the horses again, the very reason owners sign up to race horse syndicates. Read what’s been happening with Surrey Racing this past week.

The issue of fairness is never far away when discussing weight allowances in racing. Traditionally, the focus has been on whether mares and fillies need the sex allowance and, if they do, are the amounts right? This week we will take a look at the topic of the Mares and Fillies Allowance and next week, cover the even more contentious issue of the female jockeys allowance.

We ended 2020 with a win and now we have our first runner of 2021 with Gran Luna entered at Wetherby - can we start 2021 with a win?!

Read the latest from Surrey Racing HQ including exciting news that Gran Luna will be back on a racecourse soon!

Surrey Horse Racing Syndicate is currently associated with two National Hunt horses and five flat horses with different trainers. They have created an opportunity to experience a great day out, with the chance of a big race winner. The opportunity with the National Hunt horses is enhanced, as we have horses who are trained by Nicky Henderson, who is probably the most loved, trusted, and successful of all trainer’s in Britain.

10 days already into this cold barren New Year with plenty of racing on TV to keep us occupied. Unfortunately no Surrey Racing right now, we’re still a fair few weeks until our first entry but there surely is a glimmer of light?

Happy New Year - wishing you all a very healthy and prosperous 2021. It looks to be really exciting year for Surrey Racing, with two horses having won their last race, and 3 to make their debuts.

This is the last weekly of the year, a strange and difficult one for many of us. We’re confident that Surrey Racing will give you plenty to cheer in 2021 – let’s hope we can do that cheering together from the racetrack, but there’s no doubt we have some very exciting talent coming through.

Surrey Racing recognizes that its owners are based predominantly in the UK and as a result, we will continue to race extensively in this country, however, there is no doubt racing beyond the UK offers a unique racing experience for owners and it is something we are keen to continue when the right opportunities arise.

Our last update before Christmas from the new Tier 4 HQ. We wish you all a very pleasant Christmas, for some it’s going to be a lot harder than others, our thoughts and best wishes are with you. Stay safe and look after each other.

The financial damage wreaked on racing by Covid 19 has been felt across the industry, no more so than on UK owners who have seen prize money reduced to derisory levels. Fortunately, there may be a ray of light for next summer with the announcement of the Racing League team racing competition, with guaranteed prize money of £1.8 million. Read what we have to say ….
