Early morning track inspection to decide Warwick Farm’s fate
Warwick Farm was rated a Heavy 9 on Tuesday afternoon with more rain set to fall in Sydney over the next 48 hours.
A 6am track inspection on race morning will determine if Wednesday’s Warwick Farm meeting goes ahead as a ‘cyclone-like’ storm continues to lash the New South Wales coast.
Tuesday’s meeting at Newcastle’s Beaumont track was forced to be abandoned while Rosehill Gardens trials were moved to Friday on a wet and windy day on the east coast.
Warwick Farm is due to hold a seven-race card with the Western Sydney track rated a Heavy 9 on Tuesday afternoon.
The track had received 25.8mm of rain in the 24 hours leading up to 3pm on Tuesday.
As much as 25mm has been forecast by the Bureau Of Meteorology in the Liverpool area on Wednesday.
The Warwick Farm card is due to begin at 12.50pm with the running of the Captivant @ Kia Ora Plate.
