8:26am - Flemington track conditions update

Liam O’Keeffe, the Flemington track manager, has provided an update on the conditions at HQ.

He revealed that the Melbourne rain has actually missed HQ, so the track currently sits at a Good 4 and could be upgraded to a Good 3.

“We have fortunately (missed the rain),” O’Keeffe told RSN’s First Word.

“We’ve only received 3 millimetres of rainfall (overnight), and believe it or not, the sun's actually starting to come out now.

“We're on a Good 4 at the moment. I'd expect if we don't receive any more rainfall, we'll get to a Good 3 in the middle part of the card.

“Even if we do get a shower or two, we'll still stay in the Good 4 range.”
