A non-TAB meeting has been scheduled for the Chinchilla Race Club on Saturday, May 28.
This follows on from the abandonment of the Jandowae race meeting on May 14, which featured a Battle of the Bush Qualifier race.
It will also compliment the seven-race TAB program being conducted by Chinchilla on Tuesday, May 24 and clear a back-log of horses requiring starts in the Eastern Downs region due to recent weather.
The meeting will be a five-race program and will have the rescheduled Battle of the Bush Qualifier Open Plate. The race program is:
- 2022 Battle of the Bush Chinchilla Qualifier Open Plate (sw) - 1200m (App cannot claim) - $10,000 + $1,000 trophy
- Benchmark 60 Hcp - 1400m - $8,500
- Class 1 Hcp (QTIS Bonuses Applicable) - 1030m - $8,500 plus QTIS
