Please note on any one Match Day, whilst I plan to stick to the schedule wherever possible, the nominated meeting is subject to change and may be an Irish meeting if all UK mainland racing is off. The Welsh Grand National meeting has also been rescheduled for Jan 9th which may prove to be a more competitive affair than the scheduled Kempton meeting. What I am planning is that as soon as the 48 hour declarations are made late morning, and taking into account the size of fields (more runners the better), the going and predicted weather etc, I will confirm the nominated meeting. Bear in mind though we may need to change the meeting at short notice if the nominated one is abandoned. Be wary also of any inspections on the morning of the meeting being put back two or three times “to give the meeting a chance” which would only leave a small window to post selections if you haven’t already done so or need to do so again if the original meeting is abandoned. Having said all that however, if the nominated meeting looks likely to go ahead I would appreciate selections being posted as soon as possible on the day (or evening before) and remember if a selection is a NR or withdrawn at the start, no points are scored so it is in your interest to nominate reserves!
