Process nominations for the week of 21 September
You are the racing administration assistant.
What is going on
The Head Trainer has given the Racing Manager a list of horses to nominate for the week of 21 September 2026: Coastal Ember at Cranbourne, Bellbrook Rocket for a barrier trial, Kestrel Comet if it pulls up well from Pakenham, and Northgate Flyer at Kilmore subject to its trial. Each horse must be checked in the Horse Register for its status and in the Treatment and Medication Log for any active withholding period before it goes in. Nominations and acceptances have hard deadlines and a late acceptance costs the owner a start. Anything doubtful must go back to the Racing Manager before entry.
Subject: Nominations for the week of 21 September
Dale has given me the list of horses he wants nominated for the week of 21 September: Coastal Ember at Cranbourne, Bellbrook Rocket for the barrier trial and two others on the whiteboard. Please enter each nomination in the Nominations and Race Entries system, check each horse's status in the Horse Register and its clear date in the Treatment and Medication Log, and note the acceptance deadline for each. Anything with an active withholding period or an injured status comes back to me before it goes in.
Your brief
Enter the nominations correctly in the Nominations and Race Entries system, check each horse against the Horse Register and the Treatment and Medication Log, note the acceptance deadlines, and refer any horse with an injured status or an active withholding period to the Racing Manager.
