Does Victoria change its times as there is a big meeting there tomorrow?

I just checked Betfair and that seems to be OK - it appears that Bet Angel has failed to import a number of races around the 1500 to 1545 time slot - inlcuding the Sires and the Derby!!!
Surely, it can't be that difficult - missing 2 important races on a huge day in the autumn calendar is unforgiveable.
Perhaps someone (outside of the UK) should point out that 1500 in Melbourne is different from 0300!!

I imagine they're all gathered somewhere, having a warm beer, and laughing at the poor convicts we are.

It's only one of the biggest days of the year :roll:

Times changed back to standard time in Australian states that observe daylight savings last night.

The Sunday following has sometimes been a challenge, although recent years seem better.

Exercise caution.

Wish I read this last night, I got caught out with my football that was played over night. Won some lost some but took me a few minutes to figure out what was going on, and then the penny dropped
