Aquis Farm Investing in the Future of Queensland Racing

Media Release - Wednesday March 1
Aquis Farm is delighted by the recent announcement by Racing Queensland of the new $250,000 QTIS 2YO Jewel Race and welcomes the investment made into the future of the Queensland racing industry.

Aquis Farm CEO Justin Fung said "With this announcement, Racing Queensland and the Queensland Government, led in this instance by Queensland Minister for Racing Grace Grace, have demonstrated their commitment to the ongoing development and growth of the Queensland racing and breeding industry; and all breeders can continue to be confident that the good times are coming for our industry."

"We all know the story of the chicken and the egg and which comes first; investment is needed before returns can be achieved, so Racing Queensland and the Queensland Government need to be wholeheartedly commended for this exciting initiative."
