Just saw it lottie - paddy field springs to mind ! Perhaps somebody with knowledge of these things will tell us how long it takes from grass sowing to the ground being being ready for the footfall of racehorses given 'a fair wind' ?

great little track,nice fair gallop,only problem is,the locals have 17 fingers on each hand(i think that is why the abacus never caught on up there) and their dress sense is laughable.
But all in all quite a nice track

An extract from the Great Yarmouth Mercury (Friday, February 20th 2015)
"Due to a high rainfall over the winter it has not been possible to commence reseeding. We are still aiming to ensure racing can recommence in June."

considering they closed the track early last 20th sept I believe to commence the remedial work they seem to have made a complete dogs dinner of it . with my limited knowledge of growing grass it wud seem pretty unlikely to have any racing there in 2015

As you know, originally they were hoping to recommence racing on 26th June. If this were not possible, I wonder if they might target 15th September (Opening day of the Eastern Festival)? It would give them, in effect, another 11 weeks!

so we can presume they will scrap all meetings at yarmouth until september and those scumbags at ARC will transfer all meetings to their poxy AW tracks instead

a hot summer could give it probs ,should have been seeded last year imo ,will need a year to settle .
no great loss to punters imo

the days of having likes of dubia millenuim and ouija borad are clearly gone, the racing gets poorer every year.
Cant believe the way things are going they havent gone for the all weather option, make the trip sharper to suit the bookmakers, flood lit, having racing there 12 months a year.

Ravens Pass (25/1), the outsider of three Gosden runners in an early season maiden.
Also, for older forum members, Midway Lady was beaten in a maiden at the track.
I can't remember the name of the two year old Ben Hanbury sent to the track as the biggest certainty he ever sent to a racecourse. Beaten, but won at Royal Ascot next time out!
