Public, political and media pressure has seen authorities finally come to the negotiating table. Discussions have been positive and I have presented a path to resolution. The ball is currently with the Office of Racing Integrity and I am hopeful that in the near future we can announce a positive outcome. To all those who have been so supportive, thanks again. |
