Caricom horse racing shifted to Bush Lot United 

Horse racing organisers in Guyana have finalised the decision to move the Caricom Cup from Port Mourant Turf Club (PMTC) to Bush Lot United Turf Club, West Coast Berbice (WCB) on Sunday, July 5.
This decision came after numerous cancellations at Port Mourant Turf Club, as a result of inclement weather.
“To ensure that the Caricom Cup 2026 proceeds as scheduled and to avoid any possibility of cancellation or postponement due to recent weather conditions, the venue has been changed,” the organisers noted.
This proactive decision was made in the best interest of horsemen, patrons, sponsors, and all stakeholders to ensure a safe track and an uninterrupted day of exciting horse-racing action.

Despite the change, all other event details remain unchanged.
A total of 11 races are on the card and more than $15 million in cash and prizes will be up for the taking.
The Caricom Gold Cup feature will be open to all three-year-olds and over horses going at a distance of 1900 metres. A total purse of $4 million will be up for grabs and the top horse will win $2 million.
Other races on the programme include the Caricom Sprint stakes open to all four-year-olds and over, Caricom Derby open to three-year-old Guyana-bred horses, and the E Class and Lower.
There is also the Rising Star stakes open to three-year-old imported horses, the three-year-old and over WI-bred winners, H Class and Lower WI bred non-winners in Guyana, three-year-olds and over I/J/K Class, L Class winners, K&L Maidens and the future star stakes two-year-old Guyana-bred juveniles.
All races will be run under the Guyana rules of racing and entries will open from June 22 and close on June 26.
Full entries, including declaration of horse, jockey & equipment, are to be made in person at the Racing Office, c/o Director of Racing Operations John Rupert, Lot 15, Strand, New Amsterdam (J’s Supermarket).
