News in brief
Master Lincoln retired
Seven-year-old Master Lincoln has been retired with a suspensory ligament injury and will be rehomed as a riding horse. The gelding won three races, the latest at Gore in October, and $44,162 in stakes. Trainer Michael House will turn him out on his farm and in six months when recuperated find him a good home. “He is a lovely horse and I feel there was some unfinished business with him.”
Vaccine passes mandatory
If you want to attend a race meeting from December 3 you must be vaccinated. All race meetings will be classed as events from that date and people 12 years old and older must present vaccine passes to enter.
NZ pulls out of Interdoms
A lack of open class horses and financial uncertainty have been cited as the reason New Zealand has pulled out of hosting the 2023 Interdominion series. Interdominion Event Committee chair Ken Spicer says while it is disappointing to withdraw from hosting the time-honoured event, Harness Racing New Zealand could look to rejoin the rotation roster post 2025 “should circumstances improve.” New South Wales is hosting this year’s event next month with the next three now in Victoria (2022), Queensland (2023) and NSW (2024).
