South West & Riverina - 9- Junee 3, Temora 3,Wagga 3 and Young 2
But gaining 2 extra at Goulburn.
Goulburn is being classed as 1/2 Metro and 1/2 South west and Riverina gaining 2 in 2013 from 8 to 10
Hard to see the justification in Dubbo and Parkes being reduced, both good tracks in the heart of a good horse territory. Orange seemed to be overcatered to with an allocation of five meetings per year, and still get to hold 3 meetings a year when compared to the other tracks in the area that have to make do with 2!
I don't know of the conditions within the other areas so can't comment on them.
