TRAINERS in the UK will stage a boycott of two races on Lingfield’s Winter Derby card today (Saturday) in protest against low levels of prize money.

In the five-furlong novice stakes none were declared, while only Nick Litmoden’s Greybychoice was declared for the novice stakes over a mile. The two races are each worth £4,500 in total prize money, compared to £5,800 last year.
