The much-anticipated Grand Heritage and its consolation race have been postponed to Tuesday following concerns over unsafe weather conditions. Officials made the call after lightning was detected within a 5km radius of the racecourse, posing a significant risk to jockeys, horses, and spectators.
Safety protocols were immediately enacted, with the decision prioritizing the well-being of all participants. While the postponement is disappointing for racing enthusiasts, it ensures the races will proceed under safer and fairer conditions.
The revised schedule will see the Grand Heritage take center stage on Tuesday, offering connections and punters a second chance to witness this unique spectacle unfold.
