Top jockey Damian Lane will be inducted into his home state’s Western Australian Racing Hall of Fame.
The well-travelled 42-time Group 1-winning jockey, who grew up in Bunbury, will be inducted alongside legendary jockey and thoroughbred trainer Reg Treffone, champion stallion and 1971 Caulfield Guineas winner Beau Sovereign and renowned Chairman of Stewards Jack Marks.
“This year’s inductees have each achieved great success in their fields and reflect the qualities that make our racing industry special – talent, commitment and integrity,” Racing Wagering Western Australia chief executive Ian Edwards said.
“Their impact reaches far beyond the racetrack and they have continued to build on what is a rich history of horseracing in our state.”
The WA Hall of Fame ceremony will be held in Perth on August 23.
