Daryl,

GRNSW almost on a daily basis puts out info on regional racing. At this point theyve bunkered down pretty well and hopefully we can continue to race for the foreseeable future.

Though a mate of mine has a horse with a leading trainer and the talk is going around there too that racing might stop for 4-8 weeks. Im guessing thatll be in the winter months after the autumn carnival.

One thing about racing it contributes to the states coffers. So, we have that on our side...

Forget myself what they used to call their kennels. Pretty sure Mick and Selena are around the Gold Coast hinterland.
