It will be 4m 2.5f Paul that's what I changed it to in the schedule.

Should it not be 4m3.5f in the racekit. I know the official distance is now 4m2.5f but I'm sure that is down to a course remeasurement rather than yet another change in how far the horses have to run. If we make the GN 4m2.5f for the league, the race will start only a few strides short of the melling road.

Not sure Kev but when its 4m 3.5f it starts on the bend will check I think that's why I moved it down to 4m2.5f.

Race started on the bend last season because it was run over 4m4f. It's fine in ck over 4m3.5f so would think the rackekit would be the same. I just installed Windows 10 a few days ago so haven't got round to reinstalling the racekit yet but would guess it might be updated before the new season starts. Anyway my GN horses will probably find 4m2.5f too short and 4m3.5f too far if they don't get pulled up or brought down first :lol:
