Racing Victoria (RV) advises that the meeting scheduled at Ararat tomorrow, Thursday, 28 March, has been transferred to Donald Racecourse.
The meeting has been transferred owing to a burst water main in the home straight which was detected today. A subsequent inspection by RV Stewards found that the track is unsuitable for racing.
All scratching’s for tomorrow’s meeting will be reinstated.
RV also wish to advise that the meeting scheduled at Sportsbet Ballarat on Tuesday, 2 April will be transferred to Bendigo to allow important works to be undertaken on the construction of the new Ballarat synthetic track which is scheduled to open in May.
Nominations for Tuesday’s meeting, which originally closed at 12 noon today, have been reopened and will now close at 10am tomorrow, Thursday, 28 March.
As a result of the transfers, there will be a change of distance to the following races at Donald and Bendigo. Fields, prizemoney and race times remain unchanged.
