The Kyneton races were abandoned today after just one race due to safety concerns about the condition of the racetrack. Jockeys raised serious concerns that sections of the track, specifically around the home turn, were unsafe, with several riders reporting their horses slipping in different areas. Despite attempts by the track manager to remedy the situation by aerating the track following a stewards' inspection, the jockeys were not satisfied with the remedial action. Consequently, the riders voted against continuing the meeting, leading to the race being abandoned to ensure safety for all participants.
