Congratulations to connections of Kingofthefrontier, who became the first GB Pointing Bonus Scheme winner following his success at Southwell yesterday.
The Scheme – one of several measures introduced as part of the 2026 Fixture List – rewards the winners of selected Point-to-Point races that go on to win a developmental race under Rules.
It is designed to help enhance the pipeline of quality horses progressing to race under Rules and strengthen Point-to-Points as a development ground for those horses.
Further details of the Scheme, and others that formed part of the 2026 Fixture List, can be found here: media.britishhorseracing.com…
