2020 NRHA European Futurity Update

The European Executive Board met today to discuss the opportunities and possibilities for the rescheduling of the 2020 NRHA European Futurity due to the spreading of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in northern Italy, particularly where the European Futurity was supposed to be held in Cremona, Italy.

Communication will be sent within 30 days from today, February 26, 2020, to announce where and when the 2020 NRHA European Futurity will be held.
