    A final word in the WYD racetrack dispute?

    Let's hope so!

    Despite protests from racing officials, the government in the Australian state of New South Wales will not change plans to host World Youth Day (WYD) activities at the Randwick racetrack.

    Premier Morris Iemma of New South Wales told an Australian broadcast audience that the state-owned racetrack is "the most appropriate venue for a whole range of reasons." WYD organizers have consistently said that Randwick is the only facility in the region that can accommodate the crowd of 500,000 or more that is expected for the event, which will culminate with Mass celebrated by Pope Benedict XVI.

    ...Premier Iemma said that his government is committed to finding a solution that will minimize the difficulties for the Randwick trainers, while allowing WYD to proceed on schedule. [CWNews]
