Upcoming Coleraine and Warrnambool meetings transferred

Racing Victoria (RV) wishes to advise that the meeting scheduled at Coleraine on Sunday, 11 August has been transferred to Casterton and the meeting at Warrnambool on Thursday, 15 August has been transferred to bet365 Terang. 

The track at Coleraine was inspected this morning and it was concluded that the surface was not suitable to conduct a jumps meeting on Sunday.

As such, it was determined the best course of action would be to transfer the seven-race card to Casterton, where the track is currently rated a Soft 6. 

As a result of the transfer, acceptances have been extended until 11am today, with trainers who have accepted but do not wish to run at Casterton asked to cancel their acceptance.

Coleraine was also due to hold jumps trials on Monday, 12 August with these now transferred to Hamilton. Nominations for the trials will still close at 12noon today.

Following an inspection, it was also determined that the Warrnambool track would benefit from a small break in racing.

As a result, the Warrnambool meeting next Thursday will be transferred to bet365Terang. Warrnambool are expected to return to racing on Thursday, 12 September. 

The updated programs are as follows:
