Newly appointed New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing (NZTR) chief executive Matt Ballesty has had his feet under the desk for a couple of months now, and he is excited about the challenge of leading the industry into the future.
Thoroughbreds often become a part of the family for many owners, none more so than Sam Fursdon’s Reet Petite, a retired racehorse thriving in her new career as an eventer.
Held at the upcoming Randlab Matamata Equestrian Group Horse Trial, the New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing Eventer Stakes is for thoroughbreds who have finished their racing career within the last two years.
NZTR is pleased to announce the official Jumps Racing Calendar for the 2025 season that includes several key initiatives to deliver on recommendations from the Jumps Racing Review Panel.
