Northaw Races abandoned for 2021

The uncertainty around the permitted return of spectators to Point-to-Points has forced the race committee at Northaw Races to cancel their fixture for May 3rd 2021. 

Whilst Pointing will be permitted again behind closed doors from March 29, the return of spectators is, as yet, unscheduled. Douglas Pirie, Secretary of the fixture, remarked,"There are sadly too many unknowns to make planning for a fixture sensible. Not only might we be faced with a fixture unable to admit spectators, but the pursuit of support, both commercial in the form of sponsorship, and from the myriad volunteers we need to make this event viable, has been massively disrupted by the impact of the virus."

North London's only Point-to-Point will return on the corresponding date in 2022.
