em1500uk 190 Posted August 17, 2012 The re-staging dates are firstly Saturday and then Sunday and both days have a greyhound meeting at the stadium-the meeting will be run tomorrow ! ! Ah... Well they won't call off a greyhound meeting as they probably get a lot of money out of that! Suppose we'll just have to risk it. May well be the only chance I get to see any of these young foreign riders ride over here, for a while at least. Seriously thinking about going. Will review weather situation in morning. May well see you there then, if you decide to risk going. Think we're going to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted August 17, 2012 Raining in coventry at the moment. Hopefully the sun will come out and dry it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
em1500uk 190 Posted August 17, 2012 Thanks! I hope the showers don't cause any problems for later. Don't particularly want to see racing on slop! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamieE 123 Posted August 17, 2012 Question is, will Peter York consider this meeting a big enough occasion worthy of wearing his red blazer for?! You know it's a big event when that makes an appearance! Has stopped raining where I am about 8-10 miles from the stadium, overcast and a bit windy still but hasn't rained for a while now.

TheSmiler 420 Posted August 17, 2012 Probably gonna make a decision for this at about 6.30ish, really hope it's on. This Summer sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandie 53 Posted August 17, 2012 Probably gonna make a decision for this at about 6.30ish, really hope it's on. This Summer sucks. Same here - Just looked at Rain Today which shows the rain pattern and it looks like we are in for a huge deluge later. BUT that should hopefully be through before 7.30pm - it just depends how well the track holds up. I cant do a day time re-run tomorrow as I will be at work, so don't want to buy a ticket until I definitely know its on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandie 53 Posted August 17, 2012 Does anyone know if practice was cancelled ? Delayed till 4pm according to someone at the track. It will be a shorter practice and could still be cancelled all together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
