We are so sorry to everyone who made the trip to Towcester today. Despite the forecast predicting lower temperatures, the track temperature rose above the safe threshold for racing and our onsite Vet made the call to abandon the meeting in the interest of greyhound welfare.

If you had a ticket booked, please don't worry. We will be reaching out to everyone with a booking to discuss your options, whether that's a transfer to another race day of your choice or a full refund.

We appreciate your patience and understanding.
