Turffontein is new venue
Following a track inspection of the Vaal straight on Monday by various stakeholders, it was unanimously decided to move the meeting scheduled for Saturday 13 October to the Turffontein Inside track.
All races and entries currently programmed have been cancelled.
A new programme will be issued and the Sporting Post believes that the Grand Heritage will be split into two R500 000 independent black-type features. That is unofficial.
