A meeting planned for Swan Hill has been relocated to allow for works to be carried out.
The meeting originally set for Swan Hill on October 30 will now run at Stawell that day.
Stawell Race Club operations manager Mark Percival said it was a fantastic opportunity for the club.
“This is the first time we have had a standalone transfer like this in a very long time. We hope it’s not the last,” he said.

“After hosting the recent race day the committee and maintenance teams are ready to go. It means the transfer day will go off without a hitch,” he said.
