Calendar change to promote sales involvement

Harness Racing Victoria (HRV) has amended its racing calendar to make Sunday, April 2, a racing-free day, enabling the industry to focus on the Australasian Premier Trotting Sale and Australian Pacing Gold Autumn Yearling Sale on that day.

The Kilmore meeting set down for that date has been moved to Tuesday, April 4, and will remain a daytime fixture.

"HRV has made this change in the interests of those important sales," HRV Interim General Manager Operations Shane Gloury said.

"We want to give everyone the opportunity to attend and consider a purchase at the APTS and APG sales and having a racing-free day allows for this to happen."
