Rising tensions between two of Racing Australia’s most powerful members caused its board meeting to be postponed, however the national body says its business as usual.
Racing.com has been told Racing NSW requested last week’s board meeting not proceed, claiming Racing Victoria had breached the rules of racing.
The dispute originates from Victoria running a number of restricted whip races, based on their view the current use of whip should change.
Racing NSW, it is understood, even suggested that Victoria’s position on the Racing Australia board should be called into question.
Racing NSW declined to comment to Racing.com on Friday, but its CEO Peter V’landys had previously vowed to use Racing Australia’s board meeting to “prosecute our case” regarding the whip.
