At last week’s meeting of the Racing Conference, the chairman reported that it was suggested to disallow dual licensing as from July 31, 1939. Mr L. H. Collinson raised an objection to the suggestion, pointing out that horsemen of the standard of C. Thomson, A. Jenkins, A. E. Didham, A. McDonald and F. McHugh were engaged in training operation, and without their riding activities it was problematical whether they could carry on. Mr Perrett supported Mr Collinson and moved that the suggestion be disagreed with. Mr Wankiyn (Canterbury) moved as an amendment that no dual licenses be granted by the conference except under special circumstances. Mr Tringham seconded the motion. It was suggested that dual licenses be granted only to cross-country horsemen, but an amendment along these lines was lost, and Mr Wanklyn’s motion was carried, Mr Perrett withdrawing the original motion.
