Distribution between Trainers and Owners
GRSA would like to remind all participants who receive a WAP that the payment is the equivalent of prizemoney. If you are currently responsible for distributing prizemoney to another party (e.g. owners) then the same approach applies to WAP payments.
From GRSA’s perspective, the position in relation to third parties is reflective of OzChase records and is as follows:
- If GRSA have been notified of an ownership split [which is recorded in OzChase] then you DO NOT need to make a payment to owners for the WAP because GRSA will do this automatically, however;
- If you ordinarily forward on payments to owners of your own accord, then you DO need to do the same for the WAP. Each remittance will include the name of the dog for which the WAP is being made.
