We'll advise you on the Golden Slipper 2024 scratchings when they're declared on the Saturday morning before the race.Scratchings are always a possibility in racing, no matter which race a horse is contesting, whether it be a Group 1 or BM58.
These scratchings can occur in the days leading up to a race, on race morning or even in the minutes before a race.
The trainer's decision on scratching a horse will often depend on several factors like the nature of the horse or the status of the track. Sometimes these scratchings can be tactical as well, with the trainer opting to run their horse in an easier event or a race where the barrier draw is more favourable to the horse.
If you've placed a Win/Place bet on horse in race (with TAB or another bookie) and your runner is scratched, you can get a refund equal to the value of your bet.
