Lightning and thunderstorms have continued to plague race meetings on the Highveld with Races 4 to 8 abandoned at the Vaal on Thursday, six on Tuesday 8 January and two on Sunday 6 January.
In order to compensate for the loss of these races, Phumelela have scheduled an additional night race meeting at Turffontein (Standside Track) on Thursday, 17 January.
A programme of races to be run on the night will be disseminated shortly.
Entries will close on Friday 11 January at 9am and Declarations at 11am.
