It and the fishery below it and towards Breakfast Creek was the towrie – the main hunting or resource area – of one of Brisbane’s largest cluster of Aboriginal camps. It was also the area that northern groups, such as the Kabi of Bribie Island and the Sunshine Coast, were permitted to use as their ‘hunting ground’ when staying in Brisbane. Consequently, many early settler interactions were with Kabi people staying in this area.

Image: Ross Stevenson 2 2013–2014 ANNUAL REPORT CHAIRMAN’S REPORT On behalf of my fellow directors, it is with much pleasure that I present the seventh annual report of the Brisbane Racing Club (BRC). The 2014-15 financial year was unlike any presented to officials during the 150 years of racing in this precinct and included: • the closure of Eagle Farm on August 20, 2014 for a major track redevelopment • key steps in the development of the BRC’s $1.2 billion Master Plan • a change of administration at Racing Queensland • a new State Government The Eagle Farm closure resulted in the BRC’s loss of 40 race meetings for the 2014-15 financial year. The flagship 2015 Channel Seven Brisbane Racing Carnival was reduced from five days to four but the temporary format at Doomben was an outstanding success. But the BRC still faced a financial and logistical challenge with one racecourse closed. After the Club’s first EBIT profit in six years in 2013-14, the BRC budgeted for a loss of $390,000 amid the changed circumstances.

Image: Grant Peters - Trackside Photography. Racing people are used to unexpected and sad news. That’s the nature of the industry. However, the tragic deaths of Humberto Leite and Ashley Morris during a workplace accident at Eagle Farm on October 6 were devastating and difficult to comprehend. Mr Leite and Mr Morris were working on the infield stable construction when the accident occurred. On behalf of the racing industry, the BRC expressed its condolences to the families of both men. Construction on the worksite ceased for approximately four months while full and proper investigations were conducted into the cause of the accident. This delay, while necessary, created serious operational problems for our on-course trainers of some 400 horses as they were forced to remain in stable areas that were to be vacated before construction began on the first two residential towers in the Ascot Green joint venture development between BRC and Mirvac. The BRC acknowledges the spirit of cooperation by both the Eagle Farm trainers and Mirvac during these difficult times.
