News Summary:

Racing Victoria (RV) is set to host its second Off The Track Carnival at Boneo Park this weekend, showcasing thoroughbred versatility with former Group 1 stars and international horses at Victoria's largest equestrian event dedicated to thoroughbreds. Previously, on August 26, RV chair Tim Eddy sent a letter to the Moonee Valley Racing Club (MVRC) warning that the Cox Plate's return in 2027 could not be guaranteed without a race-ready grandstand, indicating a threat to the club's signature Group 1 event. On August 24, RV Stewards received a report from Racing Analytical Services Limited (RASL) confirming a prohibited substance in a pre-race blood sample from the Grahame Begg-trained horse, Shades of Pink. This followed news on August 13 that RV sought assurances regarding the return of racing to The Valley amid the Moonee Valley Racing Club's $250 million redevelopment, with the club refuting what it termed unfounded misinformation about the project's progress. Earlier, on August 12, RV Stewards concluded inquiries into four charges against Ben Woodsford, who pleaded guilty to all charges, including training horses without a proper license.
