flag CEO Peter V’landys faces backlash after private critiques of Racing NSW’s governance were shared with government review lead Brad Hazzard, sparking tension and speculation of a no-confidence vote.

flag Peter V’landys, CEO of Racing NSW, is facing backlash after confidential criticisms of the organization’s governance were shared with Brad Hazzard, who leads a government review of NSW’s $3.3 billion thoroughbred racing industry. flag The review, assessing the Thoroughbred Racing Act’s impact on transparency and accountability, included private meetings with trainers who raised concerns, though no personal attacks on V’landys were made. flag He reportedly reacted strongly, declining a social invitation from trainer Richard Pegum, a close ally and PNG NRL board member, sparking tension and speculation about a potential no-confidence vote. flag Hazzard maintains confidentiality, and the review does not examine Racing NSW’s funding or independence, but follows longstanding industry divisions, including opposition to the proposed sale of Rosehill Gardens.
