Jolly gets on board at Perth Racing
Former Australian Turf Club business development manager Darwyn Jolly has joined Perth Racing as general manager, commercial and marketing.
Perth Racing, previously known as The Western Australian Turf Club or WATC, is a Western Australian horse racing organisation. It manages two racecourses in Perth, Ascot Racecourse and Belmont Park Racecourse.
Some aspects of the clubs functions were taken over by Racing and Wagering Western Australia when it was created in 2003.
In 2015, it moved to alter its governance structure from a committee to an eight-person board, including two independent directors to be appointed by the six member-elected directors.
