12:10 start :yikes:

12:10 start :yikes:My thoughts exactly. I was getting used to the starts around 2pm then I saw this one.

Perhaps it is to give them plenty of time to make alternative arrangements if they find the parade ring is still live :yikes:

:biggrin: .... maybe they should get a few smackheads to walk around it at 11:30 just to check :thumbs

I'd love for one of the jockeys or stable staff to start jumping around and twitching as if being electrocuted then turn around and shout "Ha! Fooled ya!" to the course officials
