Southern District experienced a month like no other when it went through September without a single meeting, with nine consecutive wash outs as constant rain wreaked havoc on the region.
Racing NSW chief executive Peter V’Landys AM announced on Tuesday an emergency funding relief package of up to $500,000 for trainers and owners in the Southern District Racing Association (SDRA).
This comes on top of additional race meetings that have been scheduled where possible.
V’Landys, who is on a working holiday in the United States, said Racing NSW wanted to help where they can.
