Caulfield

Sandown meeting switched to Caulfield

The twilight race meeting on Wednesday, 19 December which had originally been scheduled to take place at Ladbrokes Park Hillside (Sandown) has been transferred to Caulfield Racecourse.

Racing Victoria (RV) has agreed to a request from the Melbourne Racing Club (MRC) to switch the meeting between its metropolitan tracks.

With the Caulfield track in great condition following its annual post-Caulfield Cup renovation, the MRC is taking the opportunity to provide its members and racing fans with a twilight meeting at Caulfield in the build-up to Christmas.

The program on 19 December will be the third in the four-month series of Wednesday twilight meetings, which get underway this week (5 December) at Ladbrokes Park (Sandown) on the Hillside track.

Due to the switch of venues, the distance of four races on the card has been adjusted, with details as follows:
