By HARRIET GILMORE A MONTH-LONG, $21,000 project to restore the Warren Cemetery entrance gates, has now been completed, with the refurbished structure restored to its original place last week. Ryan Mason from local business, Ryan Mason Engineering, said he was very proud to be able to play a part in seeing an important part of Warren’s history restored. The restoration involved cutting apart and dissembling the sign on location at the cemetery, to ensure each component could be restored, Mr Mason said. “Unfortunately, some parts had to be replaced completely, including a couple of the letters that had to be to be profi le-cut,” Mr Mason said.

By HARRIET GILMORE FINAL preparations are being made for this Saturday’s 144th annual Warren Show, with action-packed fun for the whole family and, best of all, entry is only a gold coin donation. Warren Pastoral and Agriculture Association President, Justin Sanderson, said preparations are well underway and everyone is looking forward to a wonderful day out. “The Committee and Stewards have been working hard behind the scenes to organise all the sections, entertainment, and activities for this year’s Show,” Mr Sanderson said. “Now is the time to gather your produce, make the final touches to your handcrafts and art works, pick your best flowers, get baking, and have the kids busy creating their entries,” he enthused. Now is the time, he said to get all your entries in, for your favourite competitions. “For all of those preparing entries for the various sections, the Warren Show office at the Ron McCalman Pavilion at the Showground, is open all week, 10am to 4pm, and 8.30am to 9.30am Friday. Judging will take place on Friday, so be sure to check the deadlines for relevant sections in the Show Schedule.

“We have also managed to secure a few extra additions to the schedule in the past weeks since the schedule was printed,” Mr Sanderson revealed. Innovations for this year’s event, include a new science show from Fizzics Education, providing great entertainment throughout the day with hands-on science toys, activities, and a liquid nitrogen show. There will also be a circus performer, a wood-chopping display, and a fantastic performance by the Kirby McCutcheon Dance Experience. Other highlights this year include the yard dog trials, whip cracking competition, wife carrying competition, prime lamb competition, dog jumping, Bushman’s relay, show jumping and the tug-o-war. There will also be plenty to see in the Pavilion, with displays from the community across art, photography, literacy, crafts, cooking and more, and across the agriculture sections, including sheep, cattle, poultry and wool judging. “We’ve also received lots of entries for the very popular lawn mower races and the quick shear,” Mr Sanderson said.

AFTER delivering two successful consecutive and well-attended festivals, the committee of volunteers behind Narromine’s Dolly Parton Festival, have announced there will be no event this October. The committee released a statement last Friday, indicating the difficult decision to cancel this year’s event, due to a lack of State and Federal Government funding and rising festival costs. Narromine Dolly Parton Festival President, Susie Rae, said the annual event costs in excess of $150,000 to stage and, without dedicated funding support, it is not possible to proceed with this year’s festival which was set for mid-October. “[The festival committee] agonised over this decision as it is highly anticipated by local businesses and community members alike, providing a significant boost to the local economy,” Ms Rae said. “While numerous funding applications were lodged, our festival was unsuccessful in securing any funds. With an approximate event cost of $150,000, continuing without this funding was deemed too risky,” she added. The fi rst of the festivals, took place in September 2022, supported by a substantial grant from the former NSW Government’s $25 million Reconnecting Regional NSW: Community Events Program. This program was part of the then-Coalition Government’s wider $200 million Regional Recovery Package, designed to support regional economic and social recovery post-COVID. The Narromine Shire Council received $239,651 from this recovery program to support five community events in the Shire in 2022 and 2023, including the inaugural Dolly Parton Festival. This was a one-off contribution, however, which helped considerably with staging costs in the fi rst year, and enabled the committee to charge a small entry fee for festival-goers. Similar funding was not available for the Festival in 2023, but the event proceeded, despite the challenges that this funding shortfall presented, though the committee have now decided that it cannot do this again for 2024. This is because stimulus packages like the previous State Government’s Reconnecting Regional NSW program, the Regional Events Acceleration Fund, and the Country Shows Support Package are no longer available. Some media reports have suggested the removal of post-COVID stimulus support for regional events across Australia, has contributed to some of the many festival cancellations this year.

The Moo, the Falls Festival, Dark Mofo, and ValleyWays, are just some of the high-profi le and much larger music and art festivals to have been cancelled in recent months. The increasing habit of festival-goers to leave their ticket-buying until the last minute as cost-of-living pressures impact purchasing habits, has also played a role in some event cancellations, it has been reported. Like the Dolly Parton Festival, which fi lled local accommodation facilities, significantly boosted local trade, and developed a huge sense of local community pride and participation, these festivals have all played an important part in building regional tourism in the areas in which they were held. The loss of these festivals to regional tourism, economies, and communities will be felt for some time. Smaller regional festivals could also experience a similar outcome to the Dolly Parton Festival, if wider support is not available. State Member for Dubbo, Dugald Saunders, expressed his disappointment at the cancellation of the Dolly Parton Festival, and suggested regional event and tourism funds like those provided under the previous Government’s post-COVID recovery initiatives are “just more casualties” in the Minns’ Government’s “budget-cutting frenzy.” “It is extremely disappointing to hear of the Dolly Festival’s cancellation, after another highly-successful event at the end of last year,” Mr Saunders said. “Funding for events like these, is not about propping them up, year-af-

ter-year, but helping them while they grow and become self-sustaining,” he added. He said that the cancellation, indicates a pattern of neglect of the bush by the current Government. “I’ll be looking forward to seeing the latest State Budget in June. But, to be honest, I’m not very hopeful for the prospects of Regional NSW,” he concluded. The Dolly Parton Festival’s organising committee acknowledged the support from Narromine Shire Council, which had contributed significantly to the past two festivals with fi nancial and in-kind assistance, with Narromine Mayor, Councillor Craig Davies, also disappointed in the outcome. “It’s with a sense of deep regret and frustration, I note the inability of the Dolly Parton Festival to continue in Narromine,” Cr Davies said. “That cultural events of this nature in rural locations are ignored, but our city counterparts appear to never miss-out, is a blight on governments who lack the empathy and understanding that we also deserve to be funded appropriately,” Cr he concluded. Organisers say, however, that this year’s cancellation may not be the end of this iconic local event. The organising committee hopes to turn the funding situation around in the coming months to be able to stage the event in 2025, and will continue working hard to ensure the Dolly Parton Festival continues, Ms Rae concluded.

Emily superenthusiastic about studying medicine in Dubbo, as next round opens By HARRIET GILMORE YOUNG trainee doctor, Emily Turnbull, is strongly encouraging other locals to apply for the currently-open fourth intake of the University of Sydney’s School of Rural Health Doctor of Medicine (MD) program in Dubbo. Emily was amongst the fi rst crop of students to take-up the new course launched in 2022 and, now in the third year of her degree, has nothing but praise for the program, that allows her the opportunity to study so close to home. “In Dubbo, our course is truly exceptional,” Emily enthused. “With small student numbers, we have opportunities for focused-teaching and increased exposure to all types of medicine, without competing for the opportunity to practice,” she added. The mostly country kids enrolled in the program, lose nothing in comparison to their city cousins, she believes. “Despite our modest numbers, the University's facilities are top-notch, rivalling those found anywhere else; I love studying out here. “I’ve had my time away working and studying interstate and overseas, and I learnt how much I love being here, so to do medicine out here, has been incredible and it’s so nice to be where my family is from and to work in my home,” Emily said. The rural-based site of the education centre, is the ideal way to encourage country kids to stay in country areas, she argues. “I defi nitely plan to stay out in a regional area. I’m not 100 per cent sure what field I will practise in, and I

may have to go-away for a little bit to do my training, but the end goal is definitely to either be in Dubbo or west of Dubbo.” The University’s 2025 intake will comprise 24 first-year places on offer, with a preference for rural and Indigenous students. Sydney is ranked 28 on the world tertiary education index, with staff assuring candidates, that they will receive the same world-class medical education as their peers in Sydney, with the only difference being a stronger focus on rural and Indigenous health, and the opportunity to complete placements in rural and remote towns throughout Western and Far West NSW. The Dubbo Stream is also delivered in state-of-the-art facilities at the School of Rural Health, which features two collaborative learning studios, an anatomy lab, and a six-suite simulation centre. Students utilise the latest medical education technologies such as 3D-modelling and virtual or augmented reality, and gain clinical experience at Dubbo Hospital. Head of the Clinical School, Professor Catherine Hawke, strongly encourages regional students to apply to the program. "We would be delighted to see more students from our region join us, our students enjoy the advantages of smaller class sizes, more personal interactions with clinicians and tutors, while being supported by our local health and medical community,” Professor Hawke said. “These factors combine to create a rich, engaging educational experience, equipping them to become the next generation of rural doctors,” she concluded.

Huge spike in dog flu cases from highly-contagious canine cough By HARRIET GILMORE WITH the 2024 flu season already well underway, it’s not just humans who are feeling the sting. Local vets have reported a huge spike in cases of “kennel” or canine cough, a highly-contagious respiratory condition affecting dogs. Owner and veterinary doctor at Western Rivers Veterinary Group in Warren and Nyngan, Dr Erica Kennedy, said they’ve seen an almost “1000 percent” increase in cases across the district in the past few weeks, particularly in working dogs. Kennel cough or canine cough, is the colloquial name for canine infectious respiratory diseases, and Dr Kennedy said the outbreak is unusual for this area. “We don’t usually see it out here, so we don’t routinely vaccinate against it,” Dr Kennedy said. “It’s more common in city areas where dogs spread the diseases around at parks, beaches, and public places, where they come into regular contact with other dogs,” she explained. Dr Kennedy said she usually only sees around two or three cases a year but, in the past two weeks, has treated dozens of animals. Symptoms of the highly-contagious respiratory infection in-

clude a dry, hoarse cough, which can lead the animal to coughing-up phlegm or even foam at the mouth, as well as fever, lethargy, and loss of appetite. Like a human cold, kennel cough can be caused by a combination of viral and bacterial infections. Most healthy dogs will clear the infection within a week or two, Dr Kennedy said. But animals that may be compromised, such as older or already-unwell dogs, puppies, and pregnant animals, can get quite sick from the infection, leading to pneumonia and other more serious problems, so treatment by a vet is recommended. Working dogs may also be more severely-impacted as their respiratory system may already be compromised due to working regularly in dusty conditions, Dr Kennedy added. “Most dogs, if they are f it and well, will recover in one to two weeks. “The disease can progress for up to three weeks, but really if it’s going much past a week or two, then we may need to treat it with antibiotics and anti-infl ammatory medications.” Dr Kennedy said that there are common-sense ways for dog-owners to reduce symptoms of the disease in their pets. “If you have a dog that has a dry, hacking cough, especially

on a farm or property, you want to make sure they are eating and drinking and are happy, If they are lethargic, and off food, that’s an indication that treatment from a vet may be needed. “Infected pregnant or lactating dogs should also be treated, as the young puppies will be very susceptible,” Dr Kennedy advised. Vaccinations are also available and recommended to prevent the condition, especially as the disease can be infectious for up to three months after symptoms have passed. “In terms of prevention, we have a number of vaccines available for kennel cough, one in particular, the intranasal vaccine, provides immunity in three-to-five days. Which is incredibly handy with an outbreak like we have at the moment, most vaccines usually take a few weeks, but this one works in just three-to-five days,” she emphasised. As with all communicable infections, Dr Kennedy recommends owners — particularly if they are going from property-to-property and coming in contact with other dogs — be very mindful of hygiene. “Wash your hands really well, and think about changing your jeans or clothes before coming in contact with other dogs, because it is seriously that highly-contagious,” Dr Kennedy concluded.

FAITH MATTERS

Sheep producers concerned A Miracle Marriage as federal government commits to phasing out the live export industry By MICHAEL CAMPBELL

MY wife and I are approaching 30 of marriage. Some people say that good communication is the key to a happy marriage. Others will say that a sense of humour, some playfulness, will keep the spark alive. We say that our happiness together is a miracle of God. Raising four children is exhausting. Finding enough coin to feed, clothe and house everyone can seem impossible. There have been moments, when our lives could have been torn apart. We have not always done what was good to each other. Yet, here we are: 30 years later. The miracle at the centre of this marriage is the gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ. It tells us that we are not good, that our pride, selfishness and

anger will ruin our world and relationships. These are serious faults. We need outside help. The gospel tells us that God sent Jesus to bear our sin in his body on the cross. When our marriage has been rocky, we have turned to Jesus for help. We have asked for forgiveness for the things we have said and done wrong. We have leaned heavily on the kindness and mercy of God toward us and have shared that with each other. Over time, this has become easier. We have developed relationship habits that are patient and gentle, but never alone: always with God. If you need someone to talk to, we have ears ready to listen. Maybe with a little outside help, yours can be a miracle relationship too.

SHEEP producers have been left with concerns about their long-term viability after the federal government remained committed to its phasing out of the live sheep export industry, according to National Party Leader David Littleproud. Mr Littleproud is unimpressed that the Labor government remains committed to closing down the industry from 2028. The National Farmers’ Federation and other industry representatives staged an unprecedented walk-out during federal agriculture minister’s Murray Watt post-Budget speech last Wednesday, May 15. New South Wales Farmers president Xavier Martin told Minister Watt his decision to ban live sheep was “absolutely shameful” in a public spray as he exited Crop Life Australia’s Budget Breakfast. Leader of The Nationals David Littleproud believes Minister Watt has left the sheep industry with no confidence in the budget and committed to phasing out the live sheep export industry, destroying 3000 livelihoods in the process. “Australia’s farmers are in despair and desperate for help but they are getting treated with contempt by an out-of-touch Labor government and an agriculture minister who couldn’t give a rats about the industry,” Mr Littleproud said. “The walk-out this morning by our nation’s farmers – those who clothe and feed us - was an act of frustration and a reaction to a Government who won’t listen and doesn’t understand how agriculture works.” Minister Watt announced Labor would phase out the

live sheep export industry by May 1, 2028, just days prior to the budget. “Industry has never had the science explained to them why they are closing the industry down,” Mr Littleproud said. “Compensation of just $64.6 million is an insult, especially when Meat and Livestock Australia figures show live sheep exports were 84,430 in December 2023, which was a 177 per cent increase in comparison with November export (58,732) and a 44 per cent increase on December 2022 exports (30,531). “The legislation will be introduced in this term of parliament, even though the industry embraced world leading animal welfare reforms in 2019, not only in transport but also the processing of sheep in the Middle East.” Mr Littleproud said this decision will see the needless death of thousands of sheep from around the world, as countries that take up this market from Australia do not meet our world leading animal welfare standards, which makes this decision perverse. “Farmers don’t want compensation, they just want to continue to lead the world in animal welfare and work with an agricultural minister who will actually work with the industry, not against it,” he said. Supporters of the live export ban include the RSPCA who issued the following statement via its national CEO Richard Mussell. Despite this decision having key impact in Western Australia, the RSPCA has released data that indicated 71 per cent of West Australians, including 69 per

cent in rural and regional WA, support the government’s plan to phase out the live sheep export. “A swift and orderly phase out of live sheep export, with appropriate measures to safeguard animal welfare in the meantime, is the right decision for Australian sheep and Australian farmers,” Mr Mussell said. “We congratulate the government for listening to the science and the Australian community for outlining a clear plan for phasing out this cruel and unfi xable industry – including funding a transition package in the upcoming budget. “We’re pleased that the government has agreed to practical and tangible measures to support farmers to transition away from this trade. “We know that supporting Australians involved in the sheep industry supply chain is critical to the success of this phase out…. The government knows – and the majority of Australians know – that live sheep export is unsustainable, unjustifiable and completely unnecessary in modern Australia.” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton weighed into the debate, describing the phasing out of live sheep exports as a “blow to the entire sheep industry”. “This is not a win for animal welfare, it’s an outcome that is helping people in the inner suburbs feel good about something they have no understanding of and it’s a disaster for the farmers of Australia,” Mr Coulton said. “It’s clear that our farmers are fed up and frustrated by this city-centric Government that doesn’t understand agriculture.”

WARREN STAR Local News for the Warren Shire Wednesday, May 22, 2024

Women of Warren Shire — Audrey Weston WHETHER she’s watching the Warren Pumas at a home game, having a chat at the supermarket, or pottering around in her old ute, Audrey Weston loves getting out-andabout in the district, connecting with our local community. A passionate advocate for country sport and local news, she has been instrumental in bringing the much-loved Warren Community Triathlon and Warren Show to fruition. So we now celebrate all of Audrey’s contributions, as our latest: Woman of Warren Shire!

important for people — both young and old — who are living in regional areas? WHEN our boys were young, we were involved in Macquarie Emus Junior Rugby, and I’m now on the committee of Warren Rugby Club. Community sport is a great way to meet people, get fit, support mental health, form friendships, learn new skills, stay engaged and feel connected, regardless of your age. In regional areas, it’s even more important, as there are less opportunities for those benef its to be gained elsewhere. I was at Victoria Oval late on a recent Thursday afternoon and there was junior league, senior rugby union (men and women), netball, athletics and yoga all taking place in the same precinct. Community sport is alive and well in Warren!

Quickfire Questions and Answers: A usual morning looks like… I TRY to get up early and do some sort of exercise. It may be a walk/run, or gym session or, recently, I’ve started to go to Pilates at Ellerslie Lane. Can’t resist a plug for that — it’s just so good! I’m most proud of… MY family, my husband Jeremy and I, have three sons who are fun, active, and hard-working young men, who get along well and seem to enjoy spending time with us! On the weekend, you can find me… NO two weekends are the same! In winter, if there’s a home game for the Warren Pumas, I’ll be watching that. I have a big garden that I’m never in enough, so I might be there, or I also love pottering-around in my old ute checking cattle or helping on the farm. We also visit our sons in Sydney or Armidale as often as we can, so sometimes you’ll fi nd me hanging-out with them. A quote or piece of advice I live by is… I DO love a quote or motto! My mother (who is about to turn 90) always says, “just have a go”, which is ridiculously simple but still motivating. Another one I heard recently was “dripping water penetrates the stone”, which I like because it refers to persistence. My Dad used to say: “let the dog see the rabbit”, which I’m pretty sure he made up, but loosely, it meant ‘be ready for anything’. How long have you lived in Warren Shire? What do you love most about living here? APART from a 12-year hiatus, I have lived here all my life. Our house is less than half an hour from where I grew up, so I guess you could call me a local. I love the people. I love the friendliness and familiarity of walking down the street or going to the supermarket and

athlons. The most memorable was in Orange, where I had to be dragged from Lake Canobolas due to a leg cramp. Despite that, we really had a lot of fun and when our boys were little, we thought it would be great for them to experience triathlons, too. A number of local families used to compete in the annual Gulargambone Triathlon, and when that folded around 2007, we decided to start one in Warren. Since then, we have held one every year, except during the COVID pandemic. I love that competitors of all ages and fitness levels can take part and that there’s a culture of encouragement and inclusion. We also have lots of help from family, friends, sponsors, Rotary, the Men’s Shed, Council and the NSW SES, which is why it’s called a ‘community triathlon’.

You’re well known for your work bringing the Warren Community Triathlon to life. Can you tell us more about the passion behind this project? I’M not sure if this has any bearing on it, but before Jeremy and I were married, we competed in a few regional tri-

You are also involved in the Warren Show. How did this start and what is your favourite part about this muchloved attraction? MY connection with the Warren Show started at a young age; I still remember the excitement of running from the horse arena to the pavilion

Tell us about some of your favourite places to visit in the Shire. WHEN we have visitors, we always try to take them out to Burrima Boardwalk on the Carinda Road, to see a part of the Macquarie Marshes. While it is 130 kilometres from Warren, that drive is interesting in itself, with stock and crops to view along the way. Plus, there’s lots of wildlife which (if you can avoid hitting it), is also interesting for guests! Our farm is on the Macquarie and while I’m not into fishing, I do also love spending time on or near the river.

when I was about five or six to see if I’d won any prizes. Mum and Dad were both on the committee (Mum is now a Life Member) and we four children were encouraged to have a go at everything: horses, cooking, literacy, dogs and photography… My Dad, who was also the horse measuring steward, even won the boiled rice competition one year. I do think the cooking stewards should bring that class back; it was hotly-contested! A less fond memory is the shame of vomiting on the ‘Cha Cha’ ride, having eaten too much fairy floss. Funnily enough, one of my favourite parts now is the buzz in the Pavilion on the day before the Show, when people are bringing in their entries, the stewards are bustling about organising their sections, and the judges are quietly doing their thing. It’s a community in itself and the morning tea always has the most delicious scones! The thrill of competition has remained as well; I’m still trying to win a blue ribbon in the marmalade section. You work closely with our local rugby club. Why do you think community sport is so

You’ve also worked with the Warren Weekly and other local publications. What do you love most about these roles? Why do you think the provision of regular local news is so important for communities like ours? I WORKED at the Warren Weekly, the newspaper before the Warren Star, for 11 years, and have contributed stories to the Western Plains App. My time at the paper was so enjoyable; it was the ultimate in community engagement, as it was our job to report on everything that was happening. Writing stories for the App requires a different emphasis, as it involves presenting Warren issues to a regional network. Local news helps give a community its identity by connecting people, informing them and telling their stories. A local paper is also a keeper of history. There was a 10-month period between the closing of the Warren Weekly and the opening of the Warren Star and, in that time, many people I spoke to felt quite lost and missed that feeling of connection.

Finally, what advice would you give to other women living in rural communities? As warm and inclusive as they usually are, rural communities can also be lonely and isolating places, so I would say get involved as much as you can. If you have children, volunteer at the school or on a committee, and if not, maybe join a sporting club or seek out a group that interests you. Once you start meeting people, it snowballs. You have stuff to do, you know about things that are happening, you get invited to places, and before you know it, you are a part of that community.

Restoring cemetery entrance gates, work is now complete

Restoring the refurbished sign last week. From page 1 “We retained and restored as much of the original sign as we could,” he added. All components of the entrance way were then modified so that the structure could be bolted together during assembly, rather than welded as one structure. “This meant that the sign could be sand-blasted and fully powder-coated to ensure that it looks good for many years to come,” Mr Mason explained. As well as the restoration, the structure was also modified, with the height increased by one metre, to ensure damage could be avoided in the future, and vehicles and machinery could pass through safely. “Our team was proud to be able to play a part in seeing an important part of Warren’s history restored,” Mr Mason said. “It gives us great pleasure to be a part of projects like this one, that benefit the whole community,” he concluded.

Margaret honoured for 15 years of service to Vinnies NATIONAL Volunteer Week is the largest celebration of volunteers and volunteerism in Australia and this year will be held from 20 – 26 May 2024. As part of this week Vinnies would like to acknowledge the invaluable contribution our wonderful Volunteers make in the delivery of services to our communities. The efforts of our Volunteers do not go unnoticed. This year we celebrate with Margaret Lefebvre for 15 years of service. We extend our thanks and appreciation to Margaret for her continued valuable support. During Volunteer week we celebrate with her, and all other Vinnies volunteers and members who have given so much back to their community in Warren. With busy lives it can be hard

to fi nd time to volunteer. However, volunteering is one of the best ways to make new friends, build relationships and learn new skills. It can also provide a sense of purpose to people who are lonely or isolated and can increase self-confidence. We welcome every one of all ages and encourage you to join us. Vinnies is hoping some of the younger members of the community might be able to find some time in their busy lives to help out and volunteer. If you are interested in volunteering and being able to give back to your community, call into the Vinnies Shop to enquire or you can email. We would love to hear from you and have you join us in making a difference to the community.

Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK Federal ral Member for Parkes arkes

$30.5 million investment in our region I AM absolutely thrilled that five projects in the Parkes electorate have received a total of $30.5 million in funding under Round One of the Australian Government’s Growing Regions Program. The successful recipients included: f Brewarrina Shire Council — $10,069,524 for the Brewarrina PCYC Youth Hub and Indoor Sports Centre; f Moree Plains Shire Council — $9,641,761 for the Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre Redevelopment; f Dubbo Regional Council — $7,190,505 for the Wiradjuri Cultural Tourism Centre and Keeping Place; f Gunida Gunyah Aboriginal Corporation — $2,181,534 for a Community Cultural Hub Project; f Narrabri Shire Council — $1,483,112 for Narrabri Shire Tourism and Cultural Precinct — Stages Two and Three. This is a whopping investment into these communities and, although the announcement of successful applicants for the Growing Regions Program was delayed by more than two months, I’m very thankful to Infrastructure Minister, Catherine King for recognising the importance of these worthwhile projects.

Another disappointing Budget THE 2024/25 Federal Budget, was handed down last week and, sadly, the Parkes electorate was once again largely ignored by the Labor Government. There’s nothing for Inland Rail, and agriculture and mining have been forgotten.

Federal Member for Parkes, Mark Coulton, Dubbo Regional Council Chief Executive Officer, Murray Wood, and Dubbo Mayor, Councillor Mathew Dickerson, are thrilled that Dubbo Regional Council has been awarded $7 million in funding for the Wiradjuri Cultural Tourism Centre and Keeping Place. The biggest allocation of funding for agriculture, is ironically the phasing-out of live sheep exports, which is a major blow to the entire sheep industry. Our agricultural communities are also under threat from the massive explosion of renewables that’s going to be required to generate green hydrogen, while Labor is remaining secretive about water buybacks. The $300 energy rebate is a drop in the bucket compared to what bills have risen to for households in my electorate. We need to have a Budget that provides incentives for individuals to do well, rather than rely on band-aid handouts from the Government

to cover rising costs that are a direct result of that same Government’s bad policies. This Budget does nothing to restore what Labor has cost Australians, and we are all poorer for it.

Win for farmers OUR farmers did at least get a win last week, when the Crossbench blocked Labor’s disastrous and ill-thought-out biosecurity protection levy in the Senate. This comes after The Nationals spent the past year campaigning with farmers and industry against the tax which would have seen Australian farmers pay for the biosecurity risks of internation-

al importers. Our farmers already pay more than their fair share of taxes, and this is just another cost that would have inevitably been passed onto consumers at the checkout. The Nationals will always fight for common sense and for fairness in the regions and I’m proud to have been part of the campaign to stop this senseless tax.

Car tax rammed through the House LAST week the Labor Government reached a new low, ramming its New Vehicle Efficiency Standard bill through the House without debate, com-

pletely flying in the face of transparency, accountability, and democracy. The Prime Minister promised us greater transparency, and yet when it comes to debating legislation as important as this, Labor shamefully gagged the debate, refusing to allow any scrutiny over this tax that will have a significant impact on our farmers, our tradies and our families. This tax is an attack on the people of the bush, people who rely on SUVs, 4WDs, and utes to go about their daily lives and shutting down the debate on this legislation is just shameful.

Hildebrand describes budget as neither good or bad By NICHOLAS CROKER TELEVISION presenter Joe Hildebrand has described the 2024-2025 Federal Budget as neither good or bad while others with a rural outlook had stronger opinions. Treasurer Jim Chalmers delivered the budget last Tuesday with updates impacting federal and state funding, education, cost-ofliving and more. The budget, along with new economic forecasts, have been met with a mix of reactions on all sides. Groups such as Gilbert + Tobin and Clayton Utz – finance, business, and legal specialists – have labelled the 2024-25 budget as a “delicate balancing act” con-

tending against a weakening Australian economy, higher inf lation rates, and the rising cost of living. Economic growth in China have also been noted as lowering the price of international commodities, and geopolitical tensions continue to make waves in global economies. Shadow Treasurer Angus Taylor claimed in an interview with Paul Allen that the 2024-25 budget includes “reckless spending,” when instead – in an effort to combat Australia’s “most persistent inflation in the world,” according to The Economist – we need to see restraint. “Sadly, this budget is not being that this is a big spending budget [with] 16 per cent increase in spending in two

years, $4 of spending for every dollar of savings,” Mr Taylor said. “We think that is creating a risk of a more extended period of persistent inflation and higher interest rates. Mr Taylor also commented on the $300 energy bill rebate, saying that the measure would be “very difficult to means test.” “It’s all a bit of smoke and mirrors. What [Labor] is trying to do is buy an interest rate cut… but the truth is, the Reserve Bank will see through that… It only defers inflation that’s going to happen anyways,” Mr Taylor said. Journalist and television presenter Joe Hildebrand has said “[the budget] is not particularly good, nor particular-

ly bad, nor particularly anything much at all. The verdict on this budget is a decisive ‘meh’.” He attributes this to Labors needing to “thread the needle” with the national budget to avoid disaster. Hildebrand believes this is Treasurer Jim Chalmers’ most difficult budget yet. Not because there is much to do, but because it can’t do much at all. “Do too much to help those struggling and it risks fuelling inflation and creating more long-term damage; Fail to do enough and countless lives could be ruined,” Mr Hildebrand said. Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said Labor has continued to ignore the Park-

es electorate in its Budget, cutting regional infrastructure projects and failing to provide new money for regional programs, while refusing to fi x its self-made cost-of-living crisis. This sentiment has been echoed by the National Farmers Federation (NFF), who are bitter and disappointed in the Federal Government’s decision to shut down the live sheep trade. Regional Australia Institute (RAI) CEO Liz Ritchie disagrees, having said that the budget paints a picture of regional Australia’s “new leading role” in the nation’s future and in Australia’s place as a world leader in renewable energy technologies.

WARREN STAR Local News for the Warren Shire Wednesday, May 22, 2024

Labor Budget overview By NICHOLAS CROKER THE Labor Government’s 2024-25 budget was announced on Tuesday, May 14, with changes made impacting federal funding, infrastructure, education, welfare, and more. Federal treasurer Jim Chalmers described this budget as one for the “here-and-now” in his address to parliament. “This is a budget for the here and now and it’s a Budget for the decades to come,” Mr Chalmers said. “It’s a responsible budget that helps people under pressure today – and invests in the promise and potential of the more prosperous future we can make together. “The number one priority of this government and this budget is helping Australians with the cost of living. “Responsible relief that eases pressure on people and directly reduces inflation.”

Taxes STAGE three tax cuts will see all Australian households paying less. Households earning less than $150,000 per annum will receive the greatest benefit. Those earning over $150,000 will still receive a tax cut, although the percentage cut is less compared to the previously legislated stage three tax cuts, which have been substituted for universal tax cuts for all rate payers.

Health UNDER measures announced in the budget, pensioners will

have the cost of pharmaceuticals frozen at $7.70 for five years and general consumers at $31.60 until 2026. Health Minister Mark Butler said this measure was to ensure subsidised medicine: “stayed cheaper instead of rising with inflation.” The budget also promises to deliver more Medicare urgent care clinics, a free early intervention mental health service for ‘low-grade’ mental health problems, further spending for mental health, and clinical trials for breakthrough medicine. A total of $6.5 million has been placed for a trial of online age verification technology to restrict access to age restricted content online, in a bid to improve youth mental health and combat the national domestic violence crisis.

Cost-of-living ALL Australian households will receive $300 off their power bill, with $75 taken off electricity bills over three months. About one million small businesses will also receive a $325 rebate in a similar scheme if their energy consumption is below a ‘small customer’ threshold. Commonwealth rent assistance will receive a 10 per cent increase. The budget includes a pay rise for aged care workers, and a provision for early childhood educators. Three million Australians will have their HECS debt reduced by an average

of $1200, backdated to 2023, and will wipe $3 billion from public debt. An extra 20,000 free TAFE places will be offered over the next fi nancial period, and $350 million has been invested into fee-free university ready courses.

Welfare PENSIONERS and income support recipients will receive a freezing of deeming rates for fi nancial investments. People who can only work for up to 14 hours a week will have their JobSeeker payment increased by at least $54.90 a fortnight. A sum of $45.5 million will be used to establish a National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) evidence advisory committee to build a greater understanding of what works for patients, including defi ning what treatments are considered ‘reasonable and necessary’.

Housing and infrastructure AROUND $11.3 billion have been invested to build 1.2 million homes by the end of the decade for low income, homeless, or distressed individuals. A total of $1.9 billion in loans has been promised to help build at least 40,000 social and affordable homes, while $50 million has been invested towards increasing mobile reception on regional highways and major roads as part of the Regional Roads Australia Pilot Program. Infrastructure pro-

jects across NSW as a whole will receive an extra $20.8 billion in funding over the next 10 years, with a majority of the most recent funding placed towards projects in the Greater Sydney region.

Industry A SUM of $520 million has been invested into the Future Drought Fund, aimed at being used by farmers to prepare for future droughts and heat waves across the country. Around $566.1 million has been invested over 10 years in the Future Made in Australia policy to support Australian innovation and industry.

Superannuation UP to 22 weeks of super payments for recipients of commonwealth parental leave payments, starting next financial year. Tax on earnings from super fund balances above $3 million to rise from 15 to 30 percent. Employers will be required to pay super at the same time as wages from July 2026, with an expect increased earnings of $6000 for workers by retirement.

Education FUNDING for public schools will increase by $200 million this fi nancial year, further increasing to $1.1 billion by 2028. A further $98 million will be delivered for childcare centres to boost capacity for children with additional needs. Federal government funding for private schools is predicted to increase by $1.7 billion over

the next five years due to enrolment increases. Other measures in the federal budget include $34 million for an ‘evidence-based curriculum’, $4 million for anti-bullying campaigns, and $4 million to combat xenophobia and racism – specifically islamophobia and antisemitism – at schools and universities.

Sport

A SUM of $250 million has been invested into the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra to boost the probability of winning medals at the 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games.

Defence, law and order

FEDERAL spending on defence is set to hit a 75 year high with $5.7 billion committed over the next four year for a total of $55 billion. This includes $100 million to create an industrial workforce, $11.1 billion to bolster the navy up to $18 billion to increase national presence in the Indo-pacific region, up to $10 billion for new amphibious military infrastructure, and a further $63 billion as part of a AUKUS nuclear submarine deal. Domestically, $160 million will be provided to establish national fi rearms register, $925 million to support people fleeing abuse and violence, $11 million to develop an app to alert citizens of fraud and data theft, and $100 million to set up a National Crime Intelligence System.

Coulton believes Parkes electorate was ignored in budget By NICHOLAS CROKER FEDERAL Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said Labor has continued to ignore the Parkes electorate in this year’s federal budget, cutting regional infrastructure projects and failing to provide new money for regional programs, while refusing to fi x its self-made costof-living crisis. “The Prime Minister said when he was elected two years ago, ‘no one would be held back, no one would be left behind’, but that’s only if you live in a capital city and not in regional Australia,” Mr Coulton said. “I’m very proud of the part of Australia that I represent… and we’ve frankly been treated with contempt by this Labor Government. “This budget reinforces that, with barely a mention of the regions. There’s nothing for roads, rail, agriculture, or mining. “They’re the drivers that generate wealth in our part of the world and they’ve largely

been ignored.” This sentiment has been echoed by the National Farmers Federation (NFF), who are bitter and disappointed in the Federal Government’s decision to shut down the live sheep trade. National Farmers’ Federation President David Jochinke said while at a glance it would appear the biggest spending spree for agriculture was for the Future Drought Fund, only $42.2 million is new money. “The budget confi rms $107 million to cancel the trade, and to add insult to injury, only $64.6 million will go to producers and the supply chain,” Mr Jochinke said. “Farmers from across the nation are still reeling from (last) Saturday’s announcement that the live sheep trade will be wiped out in just four years. “This is a painful budget for Australian farmers, and this is a kick in the guts when we are already down.” The NFF have also said that

there has been little to support careers in agriculture. The government has cut the Harvest Trail Services and Harvest Trail Information Service programs to save $46.3 million, along with drastically slashing funding for the gap year program AgCAREERSTART, according to the NFF. “AgCAREERSTART has received a pitiful $500,000 across two years. Whilst it’s a start, it falls far short of the $4.4 million needed to keep the program’s momentum going,” said the NFF in a 14 May media release. “This program has revolutionised bringing fresh feet into the industry, connecting young people with jobs on farms, as well as helping solve farm workforce shortages. “It’s been one of the few positive improvements amid a slashing of visa programs and degrading of workplace laws that has characterised this Government, and now its future remains uncertain.” NSW Farmers agrees, saying that the federal budget

has fallen short for farmers, with more funding desperately needed to support rural industries across NSW. NSW Farmers president Xavier Martin said federal treasurer Jim Chalmers had failed to incorporate fair funding for farmers within the FY25 budget, with the nation’s agricultural sector facing a whole range of increasing costs and challenges to production. “The Federal Government must fi nd better solutions to fund our biosecurity models other than just a double tax on farmers, and we would happily return the $107 million recently announced to shut down Australia’s live sheep export trade by sea if it meant we could keep this industry operating. “Meanwhile, our roads and bridges are crumbling around us with little to no support to get them up to scratch – so it seems the Federal Government has failed the bush in its budget this year.” But Regional Australia Institute (RAI) CEO Liz Ritchie has

said that the budget paints a picture of regional Australia’s “new leading role” in the nation’s future and in Australia’s place as a world leader in renewable energy technologies. “The signature $1.7 billion Future Made in Australia Innovation Fund to develop new energy technologies is the key to injecting huge economic stimulus across regional Australia and to invigorate regions transitioning away from fossil fuel dependency,” Ms Ritchie said. “This hallmark policy is underpinned by a significant suite of skills packages which will be vital in our global race to transition to a net zero nation. “We welcome the significant investment of over $200 million across the decade for the Energy Industry Jobs Plan, and the expansion of the New Energy Apprenticeship Programs and Regional Workforce Transition Plans. “We look forward to learning more about the regional application of these programs.”

Contributed A DELEGATION of ladies representing the Far Western Group of the CWA (Country Women’s Association) — along with hundreds of other members from all over NSW — recently attended the State Conference held in Coffs Harbour. Far Western Group President, Mrs Ruth Hando was joined by other Narromine CWA members, Shona Hando and Carolyn Egan; Trangie members Alexandra Gartside and Pat Riley; as well as Warren members, President Stephanie Van Lubeck and Lorraine Falkiner Smith; in being welcomed at the event by State President, Mrs Joy Beames. The Far Western Group at the conference also had entries in The Land Cookery and Handicraft competition, with their displays a credit to the ladies organising these exhibits. Local CWA members, Glenys Church and Patti Plunkett also entered in the “eight items section”, and Lorraine Falkiner Smith in the Land Cookery event. Lorraine’s sister from Grafton, Sharron Davison, also came third in the State for her delicious fruit cake. The conference started on Monday May 6, with CWA members warmly welcomed to the Opening Ceremony by Coffs Harbour Mayor, Councilor Paul Amos, and the Governor of NSW and CWA Patron, the Honourable Margaret Beazley (AC KC). The Coffs Harbour Regional Conservatorium Ensemble also performed prior

to the Official Party being led out by two CWA members playing the bagpipes, a very fitting start to a busy week! Coffs Harbour singer, Ebony Davis, then delighted the audience with her beautiful voice before the address by the Keynote Speaker, Samuel Johnson (OAM), Founder of “Love your Sister” foundation. This Gold Logie-winning actor and Victorian of the Year for 2018, shared with the audience his roller-coaster journey during and after his late sister, Connie, was diagnosed with breast cancer. The exhibitions on show throughout the conference included Agriculture and Environment, Cultural Art, Porcelain, Literature, the International Committee (Paris), and Social Issues, just to name a few — the CWA is so much more than just scones and cream! A well-attended Gala Night was also out at the Pacific Bay Resort on the evening of Wednesday May 8, where members (and some husbands) enjoyed a lovely relaxing night of dining and dancing. The CWA tradition of many and varied guest speakers informing and relaying important messages on topics of interest was also evident at the conference with speakers including Sonia and Jamie, the Mental Health team from Rural Adversity Mental Health Program; the Minister for Regional Transport; Rebecca Hogan from the Australian Government’s Department of Climate Change, Energy,

the Environment and Water on their koala project; a panel from Rural Crime, Crime Stoppers and the founder of the “Boys from the Bush” group; among many. Another highlight among the speakers was ABC News Breakfast (and the narrator of Muster Dogs), Lisa Millar. The Conference Organising Committee, North Coast Group, including President Ann Rehwinkel, Coffs Harbour Branch; Trish Stabback, Woolgoolga; Leonie Saunders, Yamba; Jodie Williams, Coffs Harbour; Leonie Fish, South Grafton Evening; and Sharron Davison, Grafton, were congratulated on an amazing job, along with their respective Branch volunteers. Sponsors of the Conference were also supported with display stands offering information on their work. The Ex Services Club venue was spacious enough to house all of the meetings, exhibits, and trade displays under the one roof. The Conference concluded, once again, with an inspirational display of unity with everyone singing together the old Glen Campbell song, “Try a Little Kindness”. All-in-all, it was a very successful Conference with congratulations to the State Committee, North Coast Group and their respective members, and all their volunteers. The 2025 CWA conference (103rd) will be held in Wagga Wagga from May 19–22, 2025.

Local schools have their say, at Warren CWA’s Speak Out Day! By HARRIET GILMORE WARREN CWA’s annual “Speak Out” public address competition for all schools in the Shire, was held last week. The event involved almost 60 primary students from Warren Central and St Mary’s Parish School, making presentations on a wide range of topics last Wednesday in the Warren Shire Community Rooms. Sharon McCalman, Secretary of the Warren CWA, said it was a very successful and enter-taining day, with an extremely high standard of speeches delivered. “We were amused and informed by the students’ thoughts on interesting topics such as ghost stories, the power of music, why it’s important to brush my teeth, life through my pets’ eyes, who makes me laugh, and what it means to be a good friend,” Mrs McCalman said. “On behalf of Warren CWA, congratulations to all speakers and thank you to all helpers – especially Helen Higgins our time-keeper, CWA adjudicator Di Perry, and Greg O’Mally, our adjudicator from Narromine,” she added. The Schools themselves and Council were also acknowledged for taking part in this im-portant annual tradition. “Also to the teachers from Warren Central School and St Mary’s

for organising and transporting the students. “Thank you to Katrina Walker and the Warren Shire Council, for another successful CWA Speak Out day,” Mrs McCalman said.

Ladies Day is also coming up in early June. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED. By HARRIET GILMORE BACK-TO-BACK First Grade premierships aren’t the only goals that Warren Rugby Club has set itself to kick this year, with the Puma’s also marking another special milestone. This season marks 70 years since the Club was fi rst founded, and members are marking the anniversary with a full-day of celebrations, including a cocktail ball and “old boys” match, in late June. Tickets are on sale now until early June but expected to sell out with plenty of past and present players, families, and supporters set to join in on the festivities. The day of celebrations kicks-off at Victoria Oval with a full day of rugby as the Pumas’ three grades take on Walgett, as well as the much-anticipated seniors match. But the party really kicksoff in the evening, with a cocktail ball at the Sporting and Cultural Centre with former Wallaby and Central West local, Warwick Waugh, guest speaker for the evening. Waugh — originally from Gulargambone — played rugby for Randwick, NSW, and Australia, including eight tests for the Wallabies alongside some of our greatest players of all time, including John Eales, David Campese, Phil Kearns, and the Ella brothers.

Waugh made his Wallabies debut against South Africa alongside Rod McCall in 1993 during the historic fi rst tour of South Africa in 23 years, before being selected in the 1995 World Cup squad, for Bledisloe Cup matches, and in tours of the United Kingdom and Argentina in 1996 and 1997. Waugh also played in an astounding seven grand finals, winning six, during the golden years of the Randwick “Galloping Greens” in 1990, 1992, 1994, 1996, 2000, 2003, and 2004. Warren Rugby Club Vice-President, Jack Kelly, said the Club was thoroughly looking forward to the special day of celebrations. “The Committee is busy preparing for our upcoming 70th Anniversary Celebrations,” Jack revealed. “We are very excited to be hosting our much-anticipated ‘Old Boys’ game, where past players will showcase their skills once again,” he added. He said that, all former players have to do, is sign-up for the match. “We are currently chasing expressions-of-interest from past players over 35 to play in this game. To nominate, please email your name and age to our Warren Old Boys game email,” Jack explained. “We are also really looking forward to welcoming two original players from that fi rst year, 70 years ago,

Bomber Moxham and Barry Beach, as well as the family of another original player Andrew Wass, to help-us celebrate the Day. “Following the full day of rugby, the evening ball is set to be a fantastic night, guest speaker, Warwick Waugh, is sure to have some great stories to tell, plus we’ll have jersey auctions, a delicious three-course meal, and live music by Squeaky Sound Box,” Jack said. He said however that, anyone who wants to be involved, better get in early, especially if you’ve got friends in mind! “Tickets are on sale now and selling fast, we are encouraging people to buy their tickets in tables of 10, if they wish to sit with a group. “Those who have purchased the 10 tickets in one transaction, will receive an email closer to the ball, where they can enter the full names of all their guests,” Jack explained. As well as the special 70year celebrations, the Club is also gearing up for their annual “Ladies Day” for the fi rst weekend in June. “It’s one of the best days of the year, and one the whole club looks forward to,” Jack concluded. Tickets for both the 70th anniversary ball and Ladies Day, are on sale now. See advertisements for details.

Mark Robinson, Bruce Cosgrove and Malcolm Stephens. A THREE-PERSON Ambrose (any combination), was played for the Banker Wilde Memorial Trophy Day last Saturday. On an icy-cold day with a fresh breeze, a good total of 51 starters put the weather out of their mind to honour the late Banker Wilde — one of the club’s very popular golfers. Members of the Wilde family, including Banker’s daughter, Amanda, and her husband, Nick, along with their children and grandchildren, came along for the day and provided the incredible meat trays as prizes which was very, very generous. The family was also very pleased with the turn-out of players and provided an allday barbecue which was very well-received by all on such a chilly day, with acknowledge-

Lyn Rawlinson, Barb Laws and Brian Robertson.

ment to the cooks who brought a smile to every golfer’s face as it was all grilled to perfection. Claiming a significant portion of the available prizes in the three-person Ambrose event, was the combination of the mother-and-son team of Tara, Joey, and Danny Walker, who compiled a great score of 60 to easily win the day — we hope you have a huge deep freezer, Tara! Kevin Taylor, Dave Saunders, and Denis Wilson, came in second with a score of 612/3, while coming-in third on 621/3, was the team of Wayne Wilson, Craig Lefebvre, and Adam Mayne. For NTPs (nearest-the-pins), winners were, on the fourth, Rhonda Darcy; the 16th, James Taylor; and the 18th, Craig Lefebvre. Congratulations to all winners. And again, huge congrats to

Amanda and Nick for their attendance, their generosity, and their continued sponsorship of a very special day for all golfers while keeping Banker’s memory alive. In other news, our hopes are with the Warren ladies Pennants’ team, that is travelling to Cobar on Friday to play the fi rst round of the Pennants event. Other upcoming events include, on Wednesday, May 22, the Warren Pharmacy Trophy Day and May medal, which is also third round of the LGU, with an 18-Hole Stroke event and, on Saturday May 25, an 18Hole Stableford. “I’m a golfer, I don’t believe in miracles, I rely on them!” — The Dirty Birdie

RACING NG ORT REPORT By COLIN HODGES

WESTERN RACING REPORT Raced at Parkes, Sunday, May 19 IN front of the biggest crowd at a Parkes Cup meeting for many years, the feature race was a thriller with the Terry Croft, Hawkesbury-trained Just A Brother gaining the judges verdict in a four-way photo finish. The $3.80 favourite Listen To The Band led until halfway down the straight from From The Bush with Sea Of Flames and Toretto both emerging from the chasing pack. Patiently ridden by Mikayla Weir, the $31 chance Just A Brother was second last as the 12-horse field approached the home turn before powering down the outside to win the 1600 metres Parkes Services Club Parkes Cup from Invertational (Coriah Keatings, $6), Sea Of Flames (Shayleigh Ingelse, $7) and Toretto (Nick Heywood, $4.40). Winning trainer Terry Croft completed a memorable day when Starros won the following race, the 1200 metres Coachman Hotel Punters Club Class Two

CHRISTIE AND HOOD CASTLEREAGH LEAGUE

Coolah ‘Roos pouch the Cup in hard-fought Boronia victory! By BRYSON LUFF THE Coolah ‘Roos over the weekend stamped themselves as a genuine premiership threat in the Christie and Hood Castlereagh League competition with a hard-fought win at Cobar. The 2024-revived Roos, tipped the Roosters off their perch in their top-of-the-table 22-16 clash at Tom Knight Oval and, in doing so, claimed the Boronia Cup to remain the only unbeaten First Grade side thus far this season. Their first defence of the Cup, however, will be this Saturday when they host the Gulgong Terriers. The Terriers themselves will be enthused by their white-knuckle 32-28 victory over Narromine Jets, and would like nothing better than to get their hands back on the Boronia Cup, after having lost it to Cobar in Round One. In other games, an energetic Baradine Magpies outfit proved too strong for the visiting Gilgandra Panthers, running-out comfortable 34-14 winners in what was a physical game between the two teams. For the Magpies, this was their first win for the season and, it not only delivered them the much-needed competition points, but also the Noonan-Campbell Cup. This prestigious trophy was contested between the two clubs on a day that featured a commemoration for the life of Baradine legend, Ken Campbell.

Showcase Plate. Swooping on the leading pair, Starros (Billy Owen, $8) shot away to score by over three lengths from Bliss (Shannen Llewellyn, $26) and Cruzingdafield (Mathew Cahill, $2.30 favourite). Dubbo trainer Brett Robb and his apprentice Shannen Llewellyn continued their impressive winning run when Blitzar took out the feature sprint, the 1200 metres Telescope Tyres and Hankook Tyres Satellite Handicap. Resuming from a spell and first up for the Robb stable, Blitzar ($15) took the lead from Kattegat when heads turned for home and won by almost two lengths from Extravagant Lad (Mathew Cahill, $4) and Rathlin (Coriah Keatings, $26). Owned by Nathan Smith and trained at Orange by his wife Alison Smith, One More Thing as a $31 outsider sprung a surprise when winning the opening event, the 1000 metres D’Aquino’s Grand Hotel and Prout Assist Country Boosted Maiden Handicap. Will Stanley who married fellow jockey Chelsea Ings last week, brought One More Thing with a strong run from well back to beat Charge Away (Shayleigh Ingelse, $8) and Foxwell (Heavelon Van Der Hoven, $2.10 to $1.60 favourite.). Leading for home, the consistent Paul Clisby, Dubbo trained Starane (Shayleigh Ingelse, $4.20 to $3.80 favourite) won the 1000 metres Parkes Farm Centre and Can-Am Benchmark 58 Handi-

In the remaining game of the round, the Coonabarabran Unicorns bounced-back from a heavy defeat at the hands of the Coolah ‘Roos the previous week, to register a narrow 30-26 win over the Coonamble Bears at Coonamble. Whilst the Coolah district is humming with excitement over the success of their First Grade side this year, the ladies from the Coolah Flyers are also enjoying a great start to the League Tag season and remain undefeated following their 32-22 win over Cobar last Saturday. The other two undefeated League Tag sides, Dunedoo and Narromine, both registered big wins over Coonabarabran and Gulgong respectively to set-up a massive Jessica Skinner Cup challenge game this Saturday at Dunedoo. These two sides have had some mighty battles in recent times, including last year’s Grand Final in which the Jets took the spoils. The Swannettes are the only side to have held the Jess Skinner Cup since its inception last year, and Saturday’s game looms as possibly one of their most difficult defences. A great game will be eagerly-anticipated by supporters of both clubs. The First Grade match-of-theround will be the Boronia Cup challenge game between the ‘Roos and the Terriers at Coolah’s Bowen Oval which should be chock-a-block with supporters from both camps watching the action. The home side could not have delivered a better start to the season for the red-and-white faithful than what they have achieved so far this year, winning the Castlereagh League Knock-out in the lead up to the

cap by nearly three lengths from Sparkingly (Nick Heywood, $6) and Beau Factor, Shannen Llewellyn, $5). The other winners were the Maree Hopkins, Cowra trained Flying Dubawi (Nick Heywood, $7), the Michael Lunn, Dubbo-trained Charlotting (Mathew Cahill, $4.80) and Boongarra Girl (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $14) trained at Bathurst by Gayna Williams. Apart from the racing, the big array of family based attractions at the immaculately presented Parkes racecourse proved a winner for Parkes Jockey Club.

Raced at Brewarrina, Saturday, May 18 ENGLISH born apprentice jockey Cobi Vitler and leading Scone trainer Brett Cavanough combined on Saturday to win the 1200 metres Akubra Hats Brewarrina Cup with the five-yearold mare Milingimbi. Cobi Vitler, now 24, moved to Australia around four years ago and commenced his apprenticeship with Cavanough in 2023. Interestingly, his first winner was Milingimbi at Lismore last June and Vitler has now ridden 55 winners in a relatively short time. A 12 horse field lined up for the Cup before a big crowd at Brewarrina and it was Plectrum leading the way to the home turn. The James Hatch, Bourke trained Lost Media (Shayleigh Ingelse, $7) hit the front but was overhauled and beaten a long

competition, where they are now sit on top of the ladder as the only undefeated side after four rounds. Following their stellar year in 2023, the Terriers have lost a number of their premiership-winning team, yet are still winning games and are coming-off a good victory over the Narromine Jets last Saturday which will give them the belief that they can roll the ‘Roos. Another great battle should take place at Coonabarabran, when the Unicorns host the Cobar Roosters. Both teams sit in equal second place on 10 competition points. No doubt the Roosters will be smarting from their loss to Coolah at home last Saturday, but the Unicorns at home, should provide them with a tough contest.

neck by Milingimbi (Cobi Vitler, $7) with Nannu (Ken Dunbar, $4 favourite) from the Rodney Robb stable at Nyngan, another half a length away in third place. Following heavy rain the previous week, the Brewarrina committee worked overtime to get the track in great order for the meeting and the reward was an overwhelming response from owners and trainers. Very rarely are races divided at non-TAB meetings however the final acceptors were so big, Brewarrina was extended from six to seven races. Racing kicked off with an upset result in the 900 metres Michael Hughes Transport Benchmark 58 Handicap. Despite being a last start winner at Tomingley Picnics, the Geoff O’Brien, Quirindi trained Redline (Zoe Hunt) started a $26 outsider and led throughout for a narrow win from The Hanger Cat (Cobi Vitler, $3.20 favourite) and Queensland visitor Seeburg (Jacob Golden, $26). Things didn’t improve for punters when rank outsider Hell Oh Baby won the following race, the 900 metres Bourke Steel And Hire Maiden Handicap for Gilgandra trainer Kieren Hazelton. Hell Oh Baby (Ken Dunbar, $12) raced outside the leader then edged away to score from Flight Or Fight (Zoe Hunt, $3.70) and Perfect Girl (Shannen Llewellyn, $2.50).

which led all the way to beat Castle Hyde (Georgina McDonnell, $12) and Rupeltier (Jessica Brookes, $4 favourite). The James Hatch trained Rupeltier was responsible for a huge run, coming from 10 lengths behind the second last horse in the 10 horse field. Connie Greig, the premier trainer on the picnic circuit , also has plenty of success at the professional meetings and she landed a winning double at Brewarrina with Individualist and Blackhill Kitty. Powerfully ridden by Andrew Banks, Individualist ($4.60) came from midfield to win the 1200 metres McCutcheon Earthmoving /Lucas Building BM 45 Handicap from Hammoon Sky (Georgina McDonnell, $4.60) and Bupkis (Wendy Peel, $4 fav.) while Blackhill Kitty (Georgina McDonnell, $6) wore down the leader Dancing In The Sky (Nyssa Burrells, $8) with Beg Me (James Rogers, $12) a strong finishing third in the 1600 metres Schute Bell Badgery Lumby BM 50 Handicap. Recent Warren winner Miss Italiana became the only favourite to win at Brewarrina when taking out the final event, the 1600 metres The Stabilising -Civil And Mining Contractors Class One and Maiden Plate. Giving Shannen Llewellyn a double for the day, the Brett Robb, Dubbo trained Miss Italiana ($2 fav.) raced close to the lead before cruising home over 3 lengths ahead of A Bit Bazarre (Jacob Golden, $8) and Virgo Vision (Jessica Brookes, $12).

Contributed AN exciting start of the 2024 Soccer Season in Warren on Saturday, May 4, also marked fi rstuse of the newly-fi nished Carter Oval pitches.

In the matches, Mids took Nyngan down in both games with scores of 1-0 and 5-0 respec-

tively, as well as winning both games against Tottenham by 4-0 and 3-2. They also enjoyed a game against each other, with Warren One defeating Warren Two by 5-0.
