Horse events resume on Fraser Coast

The Maryborough City Council has taken a major step toward the resumption of horse activities on south-east Queensland's Fraser Coast.
From today, Maryborough Park will be open for horse events under strict conditions.
Owners of green zone horses must disclose the previous movements of their animals while red and amber zone horses must have permission to travel from the Department of Primary Industries (DPI).
But Acting Mayor Julie Arthur says the venue is not yet open to individuals who want to train or exercise their horses.
"I would encourage anybody who is interested in doing that sort of activity, either to work with their respective club and perhaps organise a club event, or talk to the manager of Maryborough Park," she said.
"I'm sure that with a few ideas around the table, we could overcome those situations."
