We have had to disqualify hamper 151 from Southern Districts club from the Marla race. All birds in this hamper have been identified and disqualified. I again remind all clubs to clearly write the race name on all labels attached to the hampers as we have Marree Open and Marree 5 Bird this coming week.

Hi Everyone Concerning today's race. It was identified that x1 crate from the Marla race from the Southern Districts club was incorrectly loaded into The Twins 5 Bird special race, this crate and the birds in it have been identified and will be disqualified from the Marla event. The Marla event will proceed as planned tomorrow. The convoyer and driver have taken photos of the crate positioning and this has been forwarded onto the COM.

Hi Everyone At this stage all is on track for basketing Wednesday for a Friday Twins 5B Special race and Saturday race from Marla Open. The release panel have been closely monitoring temperatures on the day and enroute and there seems to be improvement in a slight reduction for both days.
