The annual Gregory Downs JC non-Tab race meeting on Saturday April 30 has been RESCHEDULED to be conducted by the Mount Isa RC at Buchanan Park racecourse.

Overnight rain fell at Gregory Downs following on from rain earlier in the week, making the track unsuitable for racing.

There are new race starting times, with the first race now commencing at 12.30pm.

The rescheduling to Mount Isa, has also necessitated distance changes to all races. Prizemoney will remain as previously advertised.  The amended program is:

Race 1                 12.30pm             Benchmark 50                  900m    (previously 800m)

Race 2                 1.05pm               Maiden Plate                   1100m  (previously 1150m)

Race 3                 1.40pm               Class 6 Plate                     1100m  (previously 1150m)

Race 4                 2.15pm               Class B Hcp                       1200m  (previously 1300m)

All original scratchings from the Gregory Downs meeting will be reinstated, with trainers not wishing to start at Mount Isa to reaffirm scratchings with Racing Australia.
