The Ben Fund trustees are in an awkward position but deferring it until these riders are again available means that it's likely to be October before it gets run. The object is to raise funds and it's likely that a better crowd would have turned out next Sunday even with a lesser field than might be achieved in late season with a stronger line up - should they all be available.

Is delaying the meeting until late season likely to cause the Ben Fund cash flow problems? It pays out over £100k each year, so would need £50k to cover the next six months. Perhaps tracks should be asked to hold the bucket collections , the other main source of inncome, early in the season.
