Special Conditions

  1. ONE HORSE ONE NOMINATION

    A horse may only nominate for one race on the programme/race day, the trainer has the right to transfer the horse if he/she wishes, and may advise the club at the time of nomination whether the horse is to be transferred or not.

  2. DUAL ACCEPTORS

    Selection Preference for this meeting, in the first instance, will be given to horses that are not already accepted into a race(s) at another meeting. This condition includes races later than this race day/night. This condition will not apply to races that are covered by specific series or race conditions; e.g. NZ Sires Stakes Board Administered races.

  3. LATE NOMINATIONS

    In the event Nominations are extended for any races or the meeting, selection preference will be given to those horses that Nominated at the original closing time. Except in the case of Non-Win races, where Field Selection Regulations take precedence or where specific race or series conditions are Programmed. No late Nominations will be permitted to transfer from the race that they have nominated for, unless the club requires it.

  4. ELIGIBILITY

    Any horse is eligible to nominate & accept for a race that has a higher Rating than it has. However, preference will be given in the first instance to horses that the race caters for in terms of Rating. Races Programmed with an 'R' rating will see preference given to 'R' rated horses over 'MR' rated horses.

  5. FIELD SELECTION

    Field Selection for this meeting will be conducted in line with the Handicapping Regulations for non-win or non-win front races. That being; first and second preference horses will be selected in the first instances and thereafter at clubs discretion. All other races will be selected at the clubs discretion or per the conditions attached to each Programmed race.

  6. SPLIT FIELD NOMINATIONS

    Should any race on this programme be able to be split it will be done so on the basis of highest to lowest rating or vice versa, by sex or by a yet to be decided method, as the Club sees fit. This does not apply where conditions are detailed in the race programme. Owner, Trainer & Driver splits will not be taken into consideration if the race is split.

  7. HORSE ATTENDANT

    Owners, Trainers and Drivers are advised that should they be required to attend a judicial enquiry a starters assistant will be made available after each race for the purpose of returning their horse to the horse stall area. If a Trainer or Driver does not wish a starters assistant to carry out this duty it will be the Trainers responsibility to provide an attendant at all times. Owners, Trainers and Drivers should be aware that the Club does not accept legal liability for the horse, if a starters assistant is required to drive it back to the horse stall area.

  8. RACEMEETING ATTENDANCE

    It is the Trainers responsibility to have an attendant with their horse at all times. Please be aware of the Programming Conditions Regulation, Clause 15, "Racemeeting Attendance"which is a requirement for all racemeetings.

  9. 2YO STAKES FOUR ACCEPTORS

    Where a programmed 2YO race has exactly four (4) acceptors at the close of withdrawals, Harness Racing New Zealand, at its discretion, may elect to proceed with the race and apply a 20% reduction to the advertised stake.
