As far as I know there is only these 2 which are group1 races on saturday as well as the Doncaster on Moday which I will put on another thread.

Raw, the WFA sprint race called the TJ Smith on Saturday is also a group 1 race but the acceptances aren't out for it yet.

I still think it's a big mistake not having the Doncaster on the Saturday. I can see what they're trying to do in making it a full 4 day carnival like Flemington, but there are other big races they could have on the Monday. I think it would be better to have the Derby AND the Doncaster both on the Saturday.

Thanks Sportz I will add that when the acceptances come out either tonight or tomorrow night.

Agree completely mate. Derby/Doncaster day used to be very close to the best day of racing in the country.

cheers

Here is the 3rd race on saturday small field but atleast there is some quality amongst it.
