With the State of NSW having reached the 80% vaccination level and consistent with previous industry notification provided by HRNSW, regionalised harness racing will be removed from 12.01am on Saturday 23 October 2021.

Consequently, Trainers with horses engaged will be able to utilise any NSW based Drivers and Stablehands for all meetings commencing from Saturday 23 October 2021, including the Tabcorp Park Menangle meeting on that date.

Importantly, participants are reminded to review NSW Government Health Orders.

Until further NSW Government and Health Advice is provided in relation to interstate residents entering NSW, licensed participants from outside NSW are unable to attend any race meetings, trials or training facilities.

Any enquiries should be directed to HRNSW Stewards on (02) 9722 6655.

HRNSW management reminds all industry participants of the available industry support program.
