Racing Industry continues to adjust to keep the show on the road

Breednet - Tuesday March 24

As the Coronavirus situation unfolds, the Australian racing industry is continuing to make rapid changes to keep racing going for now.

Fortunately, all states are still racing with the tight restrictions on who can be on course.

Victoria has this week cancelled all barrier trials until further notice however localised organised jump outs will continue.

Racing NSW has placed a ban on all interstate jockeys and segregated riders into three groups – north, south and metropolitan.

This means interstate riders will not be able to compete for the remainder of the rich Sydney autumn carnival, and local riders will not be able to compete outside of their chosen area.
