24.01.2022 We were hoping that by now we would have been given some advice about New Year’s Day races. Unfortunately we are still waiting to hear whether we will be able to host the Petrogas Burrumbeet Cup race day. We are hoping that the restrictions on crowds will be part of the easing of restrictions, and with just over 8 weeks to go we have our fingers crossed that we will be able to host our race day in front of our loyal supporters in a COVID safe environment. As soon as we get confirmation, we will let everyone know.

23.01.2022 Memberships are no longer available. Due to our limited capacity we have had to stop membership sales in order to package the remaining tickets. Tomorrow our packages will go on sale. There will be very limited numbers available. This afternoon we will release details of the packages.

22.01.2022 Recently it was announced that we would be able to have 1000 people attend the Petrogas Burrumbeet Cup on New Year’s Day. We have also lodged an application for a permit to host 1500, at this stage we have not had this permit approved. Now that we have approval for 1000 people on course we can confirm that Owners, Members and Sponsors will all be allocated tickets first and the remaining tickets will be sold as packages and will go on sale during the week. As you can all imagine, the race day will not be the same and there will be a number of our usual attractions not happening. We will post more details tomorrow.

21.01.2022 Race Presentations

21.01.2022 We have received news that our permit has been approved to host 1500 patrons on race day. However we are not going to be able to adjust the packages that we have for sale. This is due to a number of reasons that are just beyond our control. We would love to be able to sell individual tickets, but this is just not possible under the current environment and the late notice of having our permit approved. Unfortunately the only tickets available continue to be umbrella packages. Once these sell out there will be no other tickets available. Once again we apologise to everyone that this does not suit, but under the current conditions we are trying to do the best we can to have this event proceed. https://country.racing.com//2021-0/petrogas-burrumbeet-cup

01.01.2022 2021 Petrogas Burrumbeet Cup This event will be a COVIDSafe event and will be run in accordance with the Public Event Framework. To assist us with contact tracing requirements, all patrons will be required to check-in upon entry using either a QR Code, or pen & paper sign-in sheet. This data will only be used for contact tracing purposes and will be destroyed after 28 days.... All attendees will be allocated areas and must remain seated in their allocated area (with the exception of going for Food, Drink, Toilet and Betting) and then must return to their allocated area. Attendees must maintain at least 1.5m physical distance between those from other groups at all times. Trainers, jockeys, stable staff, stewards and racing industry staff will continue to operate in a ‘bubble’ and will remain seperate from the crowd. This also requires a 3metre exclusion zone around the horse stalls, horse race, mounting yard and race track. Patrons will not be allowed to stand along the home straight fence or mounting yard. When queuing is required during the day, please use appropriate social distancing. Everyone should continue to practise good hygiene at all times including the use of sanitiser. We know that the 2021 Petrogas Burrumbeet Cup will not be the same as we have all grown to expect. But we must operate under the rules and guidelines as set out by the government. We hope everyone understands the difficulties of running an event in the current climate and we look forward to making the most of the day. We know that it will not be possible for everyone to attend and for that we are truly disappointed. Thank you to everyone for your continued support and we can’t wait to get back to a ‘normal’ Petrogas Burrumbeet Cup.
