Waratah Series Conditions 2022
For horses 4yo and older.

Horses may be exempt from the ‘last 4 starts in NSW’ condition only if continuously trained by a registered NSW Trainer for the previous 12 months.
- Horses must be stabled 100km or more by shortest road distance from Club Menangle.
a) The HRNSW Handicapping Panel will adjudicate on this aspect.
b) However, at the discretion of the Directors of the NSWHRC horses trained on the fringe of the 100km distance may be included, though only on application to the NSWHRC and subsequent approval by HRNSW. - The trainer of the horse(s) which have qualified for a Final must remain as the trainer for the Final and likewise the horse must be stabled at the trainer’s registered stables up to the respective Final. Application must be made to HRNSW for any variation to this rule.
