MEDIA RELEASE

 

The SAMOS scheme was established to support SA broodmare owners and to assist in increasing the number of Standardbred foals being bred. Another objective of the scheme is to encourage more mares to race in South Australia.  

The HRSA Board is currently reviewing the future of the SAMOS scheme, and as part of its review will consider a range of issues including the terms and conditions of the scheme, the cost of the scheme and the nett benefits.

As part of its deliberations, the Board will consider submissions from industry participants. Please forward any submissions to saharness@saharness.org.au by Tuesday 21 July.  

As part of an interim measure, SAMOS certificates will continue to be issued up to 31 August 2015 and all current certificates and new certificates issued until that date will expire on 31 August 2025.
