As a measure to assist in solving the problem in Western Cape racing of small fields, it has been decided that from the December 12 meeting onwards, a system of declaring draws post acceptances for minor races will be implemented. This will exclude all Listed, Gr3, Gr2, Gr1 races, which are considered to be feature races.
Furthermore, the NHRA rule re scratching post declaration will be changed and the 12 day suspension attached to it will be in force from the date of the race and not from the date of declaration or scratching as was previously the case.
Kenilworth Racing also agreed with trainers that the runners per box clause will be closely monitored to ensure stables deliver at least 90% of runners per box per annum.
Kenilworth Racing thanked all parties for assisting in trying reach this goal.
