Good luck to GHTC student Nathan Rothwell for your first race drive(s) tomorrow.
19 solid months of commitment, sacrifice, lots of late nights, early mornings, never missing a race meeting, pushing yourself outside your comfort zone, taking on any challenge, trusting your teachers, personal growth, learning from mistakes and taking advice with grace and dignity.

Congratulations, we are so very proud of you!

Unfortunately, the regional restrictions that are being lifted still don't allow us to have students back at the stables.
We will continue to learn from home for now and hope we can be back with the horses soon!

The GHTC is proud to announce we will be providing our quality stablehand training to thoroughbred participants at Cranbourne and Ballarat starting soon.
This will be short intense training for people starting their careers in a racing stable environment.
This will not impact our harness training students, but will open some greater opportunities for people in both codes outside of Gippsland.
