We're contacting you regarding the 2021 Oliver's Mount Festival and Barry Sheene Classic.
Please see below the official announcement from Oliver’s Mount Racing.
Oliver’s Mount 2021 , Oliver’s Mount 2021 Festival and Barry Sheene Classic Cancelled
- Gold Cup rescheduled
Scarborough Borough Council have recently conducted detailed inspections of their entire estate, including Oliver’s Mount. Their surveyors have found several serious issues with many of the aged buildings at Oliver’s Mount that make it unsafe to hold meetings at the venue at the current time. The safety of the public, competitors, officials and staff must always come first.
Several meetings have been held with the Oliver’s Mount Racing, 243 Road Racing Association, Scarborough Borough Council and the ACU to explore all possible options to run the meetings planned for 2021 in a safe manner. Despite all possible efforts, it has become obvious that the meetings cannot be run in a safe manner with the buildings in their current state, and the mutual decision was taken today to cancel The Barry Sheene Classic Meeting on 26 / 27 June and The Oliver’s Mount Festival on 31 July / 1 August.
The Michelin Steve Henshaw Gold Cup will move from 11/12 September to 18/19 September, and we expect that to be a great event with the top riders available to compete for the prestigious Steve Henshaw Gold Cup given that date does not clash with BSB or Cookstown.
We sincerely apologise to all spectators, riders, officials, marshals and staff that have these dates in the diary and especially to those that have booked time off work or accommodation for these events, and even more so where these plans are not changeable, or refundable. Please believe we tried as hard as possible to make these events go ahead in very difficult circumstances, but it became obvious this week to all concerned that the events could not proceed.
All tickets for the Barry Sheene Classic and Festival will now be valid for the The Gold Cup with no extra charge. If you wish to attend the Gold Cup event, you do not need to do anything.
If you are not able to make the Gold Cup you can receive a refund on your ticket by calling Duke on 01723-333322.
We will be working very hard over the next 3 months, along with Scarborough Borough Council to demolish the unsafe buildings within the paddock and make sure that we have a fully functional and safe paddock in time for the meetings planned for the latter part of the season and we all look forward to a fantastic Gold Cup meeting to welcome yet another resurrection of Oliver’s Mount in recent times. We very much appreciate your continued support throughout these difficult times.
If you have any questions please contact the sales team on 01723 333322.
Please could you contact us either by reply email or contact our Customer Service department directly on 01723 3333 22 if you require any further assistance. Our Customer Service department is open from 9am to 5:30pm Monday to Friday.
Yours sincerely Cheryl
