Heats of both age classic events will be run next Saturday, July 3, with the $75,000 finals also to be run at Gosford on the following Saturday, July 10.
GRNSW has decided to make an early decision, and announcement, so that participants have clarity, and the opportunity should they wish to trial their greyhounds at Gosford prior to next Saturday's heats.
With the City Of Sydney region put into lockdown yesterday until at least 11.59pm on Friday, July 2, GRNSW considered it was prudent to act now, rather than draw the fields for Wentworth Park, and possibly risk losing that meeting on the eve of the raceday, should the lockdown be extended.
Already due to the city's lockdown, tonight's Wentworth Park meeting had to be abandoned and next Wednesday's meeting scheduled for headquarters, has already been transferred to Bulli.
GRNSW believes the move to Gosford for the feature events was the best choice in terms of like-for-like racing venues.
Please also note that the race meeting scheduled for Wentworth Park on Wednesday July 7, has also been transferred to Bulli.
Nominations for Saturday's meeting at Gosford which will feature heats of the time-honoured Vic Peters and Peter Mosman Opal, close at 9am on Wednesday, June 30.
Trials will be held at Gosford on Monday from 8am, Tuesday after the last race at the club's race meeting, and Wednesday evening from 5pm. Bookings can be made through either the On The Clock system or by contacting the club or GBOTA.
