Harness racing’s outstanding and generous community has again rallied in support of those in need, with more than $50,000 raised to assist the Burnett stable after a devastating fire overnight.
A ‘mycause’ page established today following the blaze at the Forbes barn has drawn more than 120 donations in quick succession, pledging the significant sum.
Victorian participants were among the many to dig deep, with a trots loving community across the country shocked by the loss.
Sadly, 12 standardbreds passed away in the fire.
“This is obviously a very sad time for the participants involved and for the wider industry who care deeply for their horses,” HRV CEO Dayle Brown said.
