First NSW horses to enter Vic since outbreak

The New South Wales Government says some horses will be allowed to travel to Victoria today for the first time since the horse flu outbreak.
The 66 horses are the first to meet new interstate travel rules introduced since the outbreak hit in August.
Primary Industries Minister Ian Macdonald says horse owners must still apply to move their animals across the border.
"This is the first time in 114 days that horses have been able to cross from NSW into Victoria," he said.
"Let's hope that with our containment strategy that seems to be working across the state, we can contain and eradicate this disease in New South Wales."
The horse industry says it is a major step forward in the recovery from equine influenza.
Australian Horse Industry Council president Barry Smyth says the decision will benefit many horse owners.
"Movement of horses is an integral part of the house industry both within states and interstate, so the fact that these horses are starting to move now is welcome news for the entire industry," he said.
