On 27 March 2016 a track inspection was conducted by Thoroughbred Racing SA stewards and a jockey representative at the Quorn Jockey Club. A number of safety issues were identified during the course of the inspection.
It was evident that these issues would not all be rectified
in time for the June 4 Cup. As a result, the Thoroughbred Racing SA Board has made the decision not to race at Quorn this year to provide the Club with sufficient time to address the track issues prior to recommencing racing in 2017.
