The Racing Integrity Board has released its report into why the races at Rangiora were abandoned yesterday.
It's being made public following a lot of comment, especially on-line, about why the meeting was cancelled and the procedures leading up to it.
Harness Racing New Zealand considered a replacement meeting but decided that owing to the nature and make-up of this and the following week's meetings that this was not the appropriate course of action.
Upcoming work on the Rangiora all-weather track, the returns of Ricky and Ron and the death of a harness racing star all feature in this week's News Briefs.
