    Minor distance changes?? How minor
    Would seem quite unprofessional to just adjust the distance willy nilly to suit a track that has been poorly prepared in the first place.

    MEDIA RELEASE
    BUNBURY RACE MEETING – WEDNESDAY, 8 APRIL 2015
    RWWA Stewards have again inspected the Bunbury track surface early this morning, following rainfall at the racecourse in the last 36 hours.
    The track was found not to have deteriorated any further since yesterday’s inspection and the meeting will proceed on a SLOW 7 track.
    To mitigate any risk to the meeting from the area of track highlighted by Stewards yesterday between the 1500m & 1400m on the course proper, the Bunbury Turf Club will implement the contingency to arc the moveable rail out to 6 metres from the turn out of the home straight, around the problem area and tapered back to the advertised 3 metre position by the 1400m. Minor distance changes may be required to races 6 and 7 which are programmed to be run over 1690m and 2019m respectively - this will be advised later this morning.

    Bunbury 8/4 R7: This will race now be run over 2025m, due to late change in rail configuration

    well they are back to their normal uselessness.
    the 1208 is now back to being called 1200, as is the 1108 called 1100.
    as soon as i saw on cris there was 1100, 1200 and 1410 races programmed, and the rail was out 3m, then i could not wait to see if they were as stupid as.
    unfortunately they are.

    and the one on the outside was probably in front after 1200m.
