Following the largely unanticipated abandonment of Monday’s Flamingo Park racemeeting due to wet patches on the track, punters were left in a position where many had purchased racecards and done their studying for what looked like a tough nut to crack.
Punters were not the only ones who were caught on the wrong foot – spare a thought for the trainers, jockeys, owners and other service providers who were left out of pocket with the sudden decision to abandon.
As a gesture of goodwill, the Sporting Post has refunded customers who purchased online racecards for the Flamingo Park meeting.

So we live to fight another day – get your racecards for Greyville and the Vaal and start studying now!
