Trots clubs in the western region of Victoria have come together to trial a new strategy for hosting trial meetings.
Whilst the concept of trialling before or during race meetings is not a new concept, the change is somewhat of an innovation to the region and industry. The calendaring of meetings combine both trials before race meetings and the traditional standalone trial meetings, to ensure that there are trials in the region on a weekly basis, regardless of the number of nominations.
The five South-Western region clubs are Ararat, Hamilton, Horsham, Stawell and Terang.
Trainers note:
Nominations will close as per regular trial meetings.
- Night race meetings – Noon the day of the race meeting*
- Day race meetings – Noon the day prior the race meeting*
*Saturday and Sunday trial meetings will close noon Friday
*Public Holiday trial meetings will close noon, the previous business day. (for example, Monday Public Holidays, nominations would close Noon the previous Friday).
