Established HRNSW COVID-19 Protocols will be retained at all tracks until such time as rescinded by NSW Health Orders.

HRNSW will continue to monitor health concerns and continue to follow the lead of Government in respect of the COVID-19 pandemic. If necessary HRNSW protocols will be enhanced to minimise risk to the industry and the continuation of racing in regions.

NSW Breeders Challenge Conditions will remain effective.
