Message from the President.

President's message

As over 1000 horses are now in work at Pune it was planned to move to Mumbai in the 1st week of January and start racing in the 1st week of February. However the State Government on 15th December by its notification banned the movement of horses for 2 months from 15th December upto 15th February.Mr. Shivlal Daga, Mr. Kushroo Dhunjibhoy, Dr. Farookh Wadia and the undersigned alongwith Dr. Uppal visited the Commissioner Animal Husbandary Dept., Pune to represent against the said notification. We wanted the withdrawal of the same as horses have been rested for 6-8 weeks already.I am happy to inform you our visit and point of view was well received. The positive response should result in horses moving to MUMBAI in the 2nd week of January once the checks and formalities required are completed by the Dept. The notification should be withdrawn by 2nd week January.

We are having an Owners Meeting on the 3rd January, 2009 (Saturday) at 5.30 pm in the WIRHOA Lounge. Please do attend.
