It was confirmed on Sunday evening the meeting was abandoned due to the weekend downpour leaving the Wellington Race Club surface unsuitable for racing.
Racing NSW confirmed on Monday morning the meeting would now go ahead on Wednesday, with races and fields remaining the same.
The decision means it remains a couple of busy days for trainers like Brett Thompson and Karen Lunn.
