Disappointment at field sizes for new races supporting small breeders

The Thoroughbred Breeders Association has expressed disappointment at the field sizes for two pilot races aimed at supporting small breeders, the first of which will take place at Goodwood on Wednesday.

A field of nine has been declared for the £25,000 Thoroughbred Breeders' Association Small Breeders' Conditions Stakes (2.35), a seven-furlong contest open to juvenile colts and geldings sired by a British-based stallion who at the time of covering was advertised at a fee of £15,000 or less. There is a 3lb weight allowance for each £5,000 reduction in the stallion fee.
