Harness
Yesterday, Chief Steward Ms Barbara Scott conducted an inspection of the property at which trainer Mrs Skye Bond was making application to train from, located at Hopelands, following the Stewards decision to refuse permission for her to resume training from the registered training establishment of the partnership with Mr G Bond prior to his disqualification at Forrestdale.
Following inspection and interview with Mrs Bond on the day, the Stewards were satisfied that the required standards and guidelines with respect to the training of horses from these premises by Mrs Bond were met and in keeping with the RWWA Harness Rules of Racing. In particular the establishment of secure and separate feed rooms, security over horses that were to be located there and suitable controls for treatments and medications.
Accordingly permission to establish her registered training premises and commence training horses from that location was granted effective forthwith.
