Racing will resume at Werribee next month after the track was used as a base for the international horses during the spring.

The last of the visitors will leave the centre on Sunday and the first race meeting is scheduled for December 10.

The track was passed for racing after a series of jump-outs at the track on Friday.

The second meeting will be held on January 15, two weeks before the Werribee Cup.

“We are pleased that the jockeys have declared the track safe and that it is fit to resume racing on December 10,” Racing Victoria chief operating officer Bernard Saundry said.

Saundry said the surface has been prepared as a slow track for the international horses over the past three months which meant it carried excess moisture for the jump outs.

“It will now be prepared as a racing surface,” he said.

“The track will be rolled regularly between now and the resumption of racing and local horses will gallop on it weekly as part of the maintenance program.”

Racing is also set to resume at Benalla which has been closed for remedial work after part of the track collapsed during a race in October last year.

The Mick Price-trained Savour That put his foot in a hole and fell and as a result jockey Jason Benbow came off and suffered a fractured left ankle.

Kilmore is the third country Victorian track set to race again next month after being closed.

The replacement of drainage was delayed due to wet weather over recent months and the track needed a four to five week consolidation period.
