Casino Heritage Trial and NSW Championships 18 - 21 July
The start date for the NSW Championships has been changed. It will now begin at 2pm Thursday, July 18, with the running of the entire first round of the open and the start of the second round.
The Casino Dog Trial Committee advises there will be no late entries or reruns on Friday morning as the first round will be finished, and the second round will have started.
Organisers say it is important for all participants to be present and ready to start their runs at 2pm on Thursday, July 18. A draw will be published around nine days before the trial starts so everyone will know where they are in the 1st round.
Organisers have made these changes due to concerns about the number of participants being too high and wanting to avoid running the event until 10 or 11 o'clock at night to accommodate everyone.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Ben Gould or Jess Gall.
This prestigious event will host the NSW Championship for Open, Maiden, and Novice events, along with a special Sire Shootout. The event will be run undercover in the new arena at the Casino Showground.
