Harness Racing Victoria (HRV) advises it is closely monitoring conditions in and around Echuca ahead of tomorrow night’s scheduled race meeting.

The Bureau of Meteorology has forecast a top of 42 degrees in Echuca tomorrow, while the CFA has declared a Code Red – the state’s highest bushfire warning level – in the Mallee and Northern Country regions.

HRV will provide updates for participants throughout tomorrow via its text message alert system in addition to social media (@TheTrotsComAU on Twitter and the HRV Facebook page) and web notifications at thetrots.com.au and harness.org.au.

“Our number one priority is the welfare and safety of all participants, both human and horse. We’re closely monitoring tomorrow’s conditions and will provide updates as early and as regularly as possible in relation to tomorrow night’s Echuca meeting,” HRV CEO Dayle Brown said.  

HRV is also monitoring conditions around Horsham, which is scheduled to host a race meeting tomorrow afternoon.
