Please be advised that as temperatures are forecast to reach 40 degrees at Wellington on Sunday (13th January 2019), Level 2 of the Hot Weather Policy has been invoked.

Trainers are reminded that runners must be on-course at least 90 minutes prior to the advertised starting time of their respective races, as this allows sufficient time to cool the horse before the race.

It is particularly important for those horses traveling significant distances to race meetings, allowing them time to be actively cooled, if necessary, prior to racing.
