At a March 25 meeting of the Herberton Jockey Club Committee the reduction of prize money from £100 to £60 for the race meeting on 2/4/29 was proposed. The programme may be cut to seven races, possibly dropping the First Division, to align with Mareeba Jockey Club's low nominations. Officials were appointed, Ezzy declined starter, and Holdcroft suggested appointing him if Ezzy resigns. The matter was left in abeyance.
