All the big heads in suits to portay respectability didn't want a few drops of rain on their Sunday finest dress...
They can make all the justification they want but it does not seem like it was in the best interests of the racing public...tote turnovers will be terrible next week...the 23rd is before most people get paid so where will contributions to pools come from?
I repeat that the industry has just replaced one set of capturers with another set with the current one's just having some BEE credentials / faces...they will strip the (remaining) assets so that they make more than they put in and move to other pastures to make hay...
A few months in and I'm yet to see a single improvement on the previous bad and deteriorating product and they want / expect people / punters to pay for it ?
Do simple things exceptionally well and then move on to grand/er ideas...here we have nothing / zilch / zero tangible improvement...all hot air and platitudes and bull...

Your memory is still good Craig,

And they put in beacons to separate the track
And the horses went on the wrong side of the beacons got disqualified.

I just remembered the name of the filly, was the beautifully bred
SAINTLY LADY by PEACETIME out of the PERSIAN WONDER mare TRISAGION.
The race was the Lancome Handicap over 1600mts at Gosforth Park.
Craig Eudey may remember the race?
I remember that.

Let us be honest the "Big Wigs" wanted to spend time with family over Easter.
This is the real reason why the meeting was abandoned.
They know that Mary will always bail out racing as she has a vested interest in the Sport!!!
