What the Alert Levels mean for Racing

Harness Racing New Zealand has clarified just what people can and can’t do under the current Alert Levels.

With Auckland being at Level 2.5 and the rest of the country at 2 there have been some enquiries as to what owners and the general public are allowed to do at racecourses though HRNZ Racing and Marketing Manager Darrin Williams says  different clubs are doing  different things.

For instance tomorrow’s Cambridge meeting will have some people on-course, while Methven on Sunday is public excluded.
