205 Australian racetracks

Every major and regional track in Australia is in the system. Post or apply using familiar track codes.

📋

Principal Racing Authority card capture

HAs upload their PRA card during registration. Trainers see designation, references and skillset before accepting anyone.

💰

ATA recommended set fee rates

HAs can opt for the Australian Trainers Association (ATA) recommended set fee instead of hourly rate when applying. All fees subject to legislated Superannuation and Tax commitments.

📷

Two-step photo check-in verification

On raceday, HAs either scan in with QR code or photograph the loading area (proof they are on site) then take a selfie (proof of identity) before check-in is recorded. No zero-evidence check-ins.

Performance review system

Trainers rate each HA after a shift across four categories: Punctuality, Presentation, Communication and Following Instructions. Scores visible to both parties — HAs build a verified track record.

📧

Instant notifications

Email & SMS alerts for new shifts, applications, accepted shifts, check-in/out events and performance review prompts — nothing falls through the cracks.

🔁

Conflict detection & auto-cancellation

The platform prevents double-booking. When an HA is accepted for a Race Day, conflicting pending applications are automatically cancelled and the HA is notified.
