That cost pales when you can't get a start! Or as happened to my mate two away trips to see their horse race and two abandonments in three weeks. Abandoned one week then raced two days later at a different location. Then two weeks later race abandoned and two days later racing in a different location again! Add to the cost of the duplicate float trips there was travel and accommodation costs for the owner to watch Group races!
What would you rather have a race that is transferred a week or a few days out to a different location or no race at all?
