We had a blustery nor easter here yesterday but step back 500 metres from the shoreline and there was nothing. Tomorrow the wind speed at Randwick is just 10 kmh predicted. The A League game at Newcatsle has been oput back and is now a night match on Monday. Childrens sport inSydney has been cancelled and NRL Trial matches cancelled or postponed. Common sense really but will Racing NSW take control as Racing Victoria does and alter their times or amend their programming. Not with all that cash at stake I wouldn’t think. And lets not consider the jockeys welfare either. That subject is in the background. The Heat policy provides for hosing down runners and providing airconditioning in jockeys rooms. It’s all good to say the horses and jockey will only be out in the heat for a few minutes but the level of exertion in extreme temperatures is way beyond what should be expected.
