Letter to the Sports Editor…June 16 not approved for horseracing at Port Mourant

May 10, 2013 Sports

 

 

Dear Sports Editor,
I refer to an article appearing in your issue of May 8 date at page 35 under the heading “Jumbo Jet rolls out another massive horserace programme”.
I wish to state that the date mentioned in the article for the race meeting (*June 16) has not been approved as a racing date for the Port Mourant Turf Club. Therefore, that meeting is totally un-authorized.
If the Club wishes to run off a race meeting on the June 16, it must apply to the Guyana Horse Racing Authority for approval.
Dates for race meetings are given to a Club and not to an individual, who feel that he can fix race meetings at his whims and fancy.
The Guyana Horse Racing Authority has been trying its best to put things in order in horseracing and a Club which wishes to depart from the decisions of the Authority will face serious consequences.
We cannot allow things to get out of hand. We must recognize the decisions of the Guyana Horse Racing Authority.
Cecil C. Kennard
President,
Guyana Horse Racing Authority
