With the going at Scottsville Racecourse already soft, and with the forecast of further rain over the weekend, Gold Circle conducted a survey among trainers with carded runners for Sunday and an overwhelming 75% voted in favour of Gold Circle making an early and decisive call to move the racemeeting to the Polytrack at Greyville.

Given the outcome of the survey, Gold Circle has agreed to move Sunday’s racemeeting to the Polytrack at Greyville with no change to the advertised starting times. In terms of the NHA rules, trainers have 24 hours to scratch as a result of change of venue/surface, after which time eliminations where necessary will be made public.
