London Marathon 2017 Ballot Results

[Jaidyn]

Does anyone know when the results of the London marathon ballot will be posted out ? The website says beg OCT 2016 , but as reject for past SIX years , I seem to remember getting the miserable UNSUCCESSFUL envelope during end September ??
It is just we we are planning to go to NZ next year and we get a reduction if we book before end September but I don't want to book until I know wether I have got in or not as we would delay doing to NZ if get into London . Knowing my luck I would book and pay for flights and then find out I had got in!
However I know the odds of getting in now is 25/1 !
Thanks
