From July 1, 2024, the deadline for notification of a scratching at all meetings is 8am on the day of the meeting, except for meetings where the first race commences before 11:30am. In these instances, the scratching deadline is 4pm the previous day. Scratchings can only be made online here through the OzChase portal.
It is the responsibility of the trainer to check whether or not a reserve dog has gained a start at a meeting.
GRNSW endeavours to contact each trainer when a reserve receives a start via text. Trainers with reserves are encouraged to remain contactable on the morning of the meeting.
