Peter V‘landys’ future as Racing NSW chief executive may be under the spotlight, but those seeking to wedge him from the top job still have their work cut out, writes Bren O’Brien.

That review, the only aspect of any substance in the Minns government’s response to the Rosehill parliamentary inquiry, has been identified as a possible wedge point by those who want to see change at Racing NSW.
