Vale Mr Graeme Pash

The NSW racing industry has lost one of its finest with the passing of Mr Graeme Pash.

NSW Racehorse Owners Association (NSWROA) President Mr Ray McDowell, the NSWROA Committee and members of the Association, extend their sincere sympathy to the Pash family.

Mr Pash was a true devotee of the industry and was highly respected by all. He was a past Chairman of the Sydney Turf Club, a past Deputy Chairman of the Sydney Swans, former board member of Racing NSW as well as a longstanding member of NSWROA.

NSWROA Committee member and former President Mr Max Whitby fondly recalls his time with close friend Mr Pash at the Sydney Aussie Rules Social Club (the forerunner to the Sydney Swans). “Graeme was a man of his word who loved our industry with a passion. He will be sorely missed.”
