Today’s Benalla meeting rescheduled
Share Article
Racing Victoria (RV) wishes to advise that the meeting scheduled at bet365 Benalla today (Tuesday, 11 March) has been rescheduled due to the state of the track.
The track was inspected this morning following 15mm of rain overnight which was not forecast. The decision was made to reschedule the meeting due to a wet patch at the 1000m mark which is not suitable for racing.
Due to the issue with the track, the meeting will now be run at Sportsbet-Wangaratta on Thursday, 13 March.
Nominations will be reopened with a closing time of 3pm today and acceptances taken at 9am tomorrow (Wednesday, 12 March).
Horses that were final acceptors after final scratching time for today’s meeting will receive ballot preference. Those horses can also nominate for bet365 Park Kilmore and Cranbourne on Friday, 14 March and Ladbrokes Geelong on Saturday, 15 March until 1:30pm today.
