HORSE MOVEMENT FLOAT LOADING / UNLOADING The float entrance for Riverside is located at the southern end of the complex and is accessed from a slip lane on Governor Macquarie Drive. This lane can only be accessed when travelling south on Governor Macquarie Drive. Once a float passes through the security gate at this entrance there are several unloading bays available for side loaders, rear loaders and basic two horse floats. We have 10 rubber lined holding yards adjacent to the loading area that can be used to hold horses if your float driver has no assistance in delivering horses to their barn. Once horses are ready to walk to their allotted stable, they should be led to the left-hand side of the security hut which is located on the central avenue. Here they will have their microchip scanned and their stable location will be confirmed to the handler. The horse will then be directed down the central avenue to it’s stable. Please ensure your floating company and staff are aware of these directions. Horse trailers/floats may be parked at Warwick Farm over the duration of the sale. To request a float parking spot over the sale period please contact Jonathan D’Arcy on 0412 965 729.
