Racing Victoria (RV) has announced adjustments to the race times for Wednesday's Sandown meeting due to the anticipated hot weather.
In a proactive measure to mitigate the effects of the heat, race times have been rescheduled to commence earlier in the day. The first race will now kick off at 10:30 am, with the final race concluding at 2:00 pm.
RV has implemented its Procedure for Racing in Hot Weather Policy for this event, prioritizing the welfare of both equine athletes and participants.
Additionally, all participants are required to be present on site one hour prior to the newly advertised starting time.
In light of the revised schedule at Sandown, the Caulfield Heath trials initially set for Wednesday morning have been rescheduled to Thursday morning, February 29th.
