Important announcement - The Government today advised that racing (all three codes) will continue in NSW. Protocols in place and those that will be introduced must be strictly followed. Hygiene and the reporting of potential illness must be absolute and there must be a zero risk approach adopted for the health and welfare of stakeholders. I thank you all for your compliance to date which MUST continue to be followed so that harness racing can continue as an essential industry and activity in NSW.

John Dumesny
Chief Executive.
