The Cowra Jockey Club, which holds just four meetings each season, races next on Saturday, July 10.

"We'd love to race more often but it looks like it is really hard to get extra meetings," Cowra Jockey Club president Peter Ford said this week.

"It'll be looked at if we keep on making improvements," he said.

"While ever we're doing good things we'll stay under the notice of Racing NSW.

"Maximise the one's we've got already," Ford said he'd been told.

"I've asked has any other club lobbied and got another meeting and they said 'No'.

"It's all to do with programming (of races)," Ford said of the current NSW race diary.
