Holes in Cranbourne track scupper meeting
Racing at Cranbourne has been halted after the discovery of two holes near the finishing post.
The first three races on Tuesday’s program were run without incident before a tiring Denhill fell in race four, a 1500m Maiden Plate, and apprentice Nathan Punch landed on the ground.
The Victorian Jockeys’ Association said Punch may have suffered a broken collarbone but appeared to escape further injury.
Denhill was uninjured in the incident.
A drainage issue appears to be the cause of the affected area near the winning post.
Cranbourne is scheduled to host another 10 meetings this season, the next a night fixture on March 27.
