A film does not come down when its race has been run. The course does not change from one year to the next, and the argument about it does not either, so last year's film is still the film for this year's race.
Nothing has run yet. The first race on the calendar moves here the week after it does.
Long cuts
The whole course, end to end, and the argument that runs through it.
