RACING will return to Hereford this year.

The Arabian Racing Organisation has announced that five meetings will be held at the city’s racecourse in 2013.

The first four fixtures will take place on the first Sunday of the month from
May up until August.

And the fifth fixture will be the Arabian Racing Season Finale on Saturday, September 28.

There will be more on this story in next Thursday’s Hereford Times.

Glad to see some racing back - presumably the venue is glad to get something rather than nothing before it is all too late
