And Gosford is off.
They must be getting a lot more ran in the southern parts of the Central Coast to us here in the Northern part. I would not have thought we'd had enough to rain out a meeting.

walter you idiot/melon/melonhead  They let you out for Christmas, ted? Good to see they have finally invented a tightjacket that still allows you to type, anyhow.

Why does RISB have a meeting shown for Doomben and Eagle Farm today. When is the R2 to R8 meeting at EF mentioned as for today?

Cancelled prematurely, I'd say, no significant rain since 7 a.m. Think of all that prizemoney saved.  After all the drainage work been done there, should have been safe. Bean counter call.

It did look like being a wet day early on; which would mean a poor crowd, fields decimated by scratchings, and much smaller turnover than normal. Too bad if you have a horse that likes the ground. Should only be cancelled if safety the issue, not sub-optimal financial return considerations. Did they have a phantom meeting ? If not, question answered.
