Jumps Racing in Tasmania
The Tasmanian Thoroughbred Racing Council (TTRC) announced that it will cease to program Jumps Racing in Tasmania effective 26 April 2007.
The TTRC has recently completed a full review of jumps racing in Tasmania and considered a report after consultation with all industry groups undertaking a detailed analysis of participant involvement and financial implications to the industry.
After thorough consideration the TTRC found that Tasmanian participation in Jumps racing has steadily declined over the years to the point where Tasmania is overwhelmingly reliant on mainland involvement to conduct jumps racing and the costs associated with Tasmanian jumps racing clearly outweighed the economic benefits to the Tasmanian participants and industry.
The TTRC extends its thanks to RVL for their support and contribution to the staging of the 2006 Tasmanian Jumping Series.
