Inclement weather takes toll on outdoor activities
The one day Horserace meet organized by the Norman Singh Memorial Turf Club in collaboration with the Winners Circle Pool Hall has been postponed due to the inclement weather. Continuous rainfall over the past 24 hours has left the venue, the Norman Singh Memorial Turf Club at NO6 West Coast Berbice, waterlogged, reducing it to a virtual pool, thus forcing the organizers to postpone the activity to a later date.
Eight races were carded for the day with $8M in cash and trophies up for grabs. The feature B class event would have seen the cream of the crop on show for the $1.2M top money. Among them were the Message, Donut Prince, Get Set Go, Grande De Roja and Marathon Man.
