Due to inclement weather, prior to the running of Race 3 stewards inspected the track. Upon inspection it was ascertained that the track was unsuitable for racing. In order to allow the track ample time to recover and allow the club to perform remedial works, stewards elected to delay the start of race 3 by two timeslots.

 

Following continuing inclement weather and after consultation with the Brisbane Greyhound Racing Club, stewards again inspected the track and deemed it unsuitable for racing. Subsequently, Stewards abandoned the remainder of the meeting at 7:57pm.
