INVERCARGILL HRC PRESIDENT STEPS DOWN
Invercargill trainer and administrator Tom Kilkelly has resigned as president of the Invercargill Harness Racing Club.
Kilkelly had his final day in the role last Saturday, with Peter Robinson taking over as acting president.
He cited “personal reasons” as being behind his decision.
“A couple of years down the track when I’ve got a few things out of the way, I might come back to administration, but for now, I want time for me,” he said.
Tom Kilkelly is in his 10th year as a public trainer and had his biggest win when Shard Ark beat Mach Banner in the 2009 $97,500 NHT 2YO Yearling Sales Open Pace at Auckland
He formerly trained in partnership with Tracey Sherborne last season and also for the first few months of this season.
