September’s Speed Star cancelled


September’s edition of Speed Star has been cancelled.

It comes after a range of impacts that have made such a unique format not possible.

“In the current climate it would not be able to be presented in the way that we know it, which removes much of what the concept is all about,” explained Adrian Scott, CEO of Sandown Park.

Not only with the restrictive COVID-19 environment in play but as well the absence of racing at Sandown Park this week due to track remediation works.

“As we’re aware there are works underway, we’re entering what would be the sweet spot for Speed Star qualification and the current situation obviously compromises that.”

The next edition of Speed Star will be held May 2021.
