HORSE TRAINING AT TRENTHAM
At a meeting of local horse trainers called by RACE Inc in discussion of the future use of Trentham as a training facility, RACE Chief Executive Matt Reid advised the facility will remain open in the short term “RACE has a loyalty to existing Trentham based trainers and their horses” says Reid “The decision to retain training at Trentham will be reviewed annually, as directed by the RACE Board”.
Trainer Brian Lines agreed to head a consortium of the trainers which Reid invited to report back at the end of next week with ideas in consideration of assisting the facility staying open.
“The ultimate decision to close Trentham as a training facility is greater than merely a financial consideration. The other two venues in the group (Otaki and Awapuni) are acknowledged by New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing as strategic training venues moving forward and so they must be where our training energies are focused” said Mr Reid.
