Australian Turf Club chairman Peter McGauran remains defiant in the face of ongoing calls for him to resign and described the ATC as "the most viable club" in Australia despite spending 18 months prosecuting the case of selling Rosehill based on the club’s anaemic finances.
McGauran’s future is one of the key unresolved questions after the “No” vote prevailed 56.1 per cent to 43.1 per cent in Tuesday’s extraordinary general meeting.
On Wednesday, prominent horse trainer Gai Waterhouse re-iterated calls that he should stand down.
McGauran told media immediately after the vote that he remained committed to leading the club and that defiant tone had not changed on Wednesday morning, when he spoke to SEN Track for the Straight Talking segment with Gareth Hall and Bren O’Brien.
