Harness Racing Owners' Association
Over the years, the Harness Racing Owners' Association has fast become a major player within Victoria's harness racing ranks.
The HROA in collaboration with the Metropolitan Harness Racing Club (MHRC) is offering harness racing participants a chance to enjoy a new range of benefits including racecourse admission, invitations to exclusive events, and this year, the chance to share in $180,000 worth of bonuses through the Bonus Racing Scheme.
Whether you own one horse, or a stable full of them, the HROA, in conjunction with HRV, is committed to providing you with an ever-improving owner experience.
With your support, the Harness Racing Owners' Association will continue to support owners with opportunity for increased industry participation, and more bonus races.
Changes to HROA Commitee
It is with regret that HROA President Vic Fenech has found it necessary to resign due to pressure of business commitments. At the May Committee meeting it was decided to ask Rob Auber to assume the mantle at least until the Annual General Meeting confirms the position and he has accepted the appointment. HROA is most grateful for Vic's involvement during this period of growth for the association and hopes he can continue to be active in his role as Vice President. John Rosewarne has been co-opted onto the committee to occupy the position made vacant by Mark Gurry's resignation some months ago.
Gerard Moloney has found that he is unable to attend enough committee meetings due to the travel involved and has stood down. The HROA is grateful for Gerard's input and hopes he will continue to represent the association in the Sunraysia district. Patrick Baldwin has accepted an appointment to replace Gerry on the committee and his fresh perspective will be invaluable.
