By Ravi | 02-Feb-2017
Stewards of the Royal Calcutta Turf Club (RCTC) have cancelled Thursday's race card for administrative reasons, according to a RCTC notification.
However, the club's sources pointed out that a malarial parasite, identified as Trypanosomiasis, has hit the stables, and thus the cancellation. But the situation is not panicky. Sources in other parts of the country also confirmed that the said parasite has been rampant in their backyard, as well.
