Turf Club’s rostering of officials needs to be looked at

I HAVE felt the need, for a little while now, to comment on the manner in which the Turf Club continues to roster its race-day officials.

We are all aware of the long-running saga between the Turf Club and the officials, regarding cut-back issues, and there is no doubt that’s a battle which is proving difficult for both sides.

The bottom line, however, is that no matter what goes on between them racing must not be affected and the day-to-day running of the game has to be managed properly.
