Market Rasen racecourse will host three fewer meetings in 2011 after the British Horseracing Authority allocated 19 meetings, down from the current 22.

The Lincolnshire course keeps its major summer and Boxing Day meetings, with Easter Monday back on the calendar.

Managing director Pip Kirkby told BBC Lincolnshire: "We've lost a Monday meet, a Tuesday and a minor Sunday.

"It's disappointing to see a reduction in the fixture list but we'll focus on building up our remaining meetings."
