Hi Everyone
I enjoyed my latest trip to the NWC this week and held meetings with a number of stakeholders and participants over 4 days
Here is an update relating to some main items of interest –
Prospective sites:
Mill Rd
Tasracing has agreed a price with the vendor and we are now negotiating key terms
I hope that we will be able to finalise a contract within a couple of weeks
As previously advised, the proposed site includes room for a harness training track and stabling
If a contract is signed, industry will be closely consulted in relation to track and facility design
Other sites
Two other sites are possible alternatives and investigative works are proceeding as resources are available
Harness training – Maxfield track:
Additional tie-ups are complete
Running rail sight bands soon to be installed on bends
Portaloo now onsite
Horse drinking water to tie-ups being priced for installation
Wash bays being priced and will include grey water management

- The DHRC met earlier this week and will be working with Tasracing to maintain the track, we are also planning to get a lockable storage container

Tasracing is looking into a number of options to provide trainers with a venue in the short-term.
Thank you and regards
