Not so sure, Bangor will probably clash with Chepstow. So we will be left with two cards one of which is very low quality with very few runners.

why have they not rescheduled off times, so they go off at 10 min intervals? you only need a telephone, its not that complex surely. there is no c4 to pander to.

Any one else considering buying 'Racing' some PAYG mobiles and donating your RUK diaries so that they can ring each other - the Levy has fallen so much they clearly can't afford to pay for their own phone calls.

So, apart from low sun, wind, frost, rain & snow. It's ok to stage a race meeting.

the low sun Perplexes me. I cant recall a low sun in ireland causing a delay why they doll off a hurdle or fence. Why is there no low sun’s in Ireland? They are the same latitude as England, Scotland, Wales.

Perfect, Lingers off late, so no ability to do anything at Bangor, just perfect.

I didn't want to get that loss back or anything.
