Well-respected racing administrator Campbell Moncur died peacefully this morning after a lengthy battle with illness.

Moncur had, since a cancer diagnosis 15 years ago, managed his health and family time while maintaining a tireless work ethic.

Moncur’s career in racing dates back to the 1970’s when he was part of the team that developed and turned the key on the Jetbet tote system. 

His responsibilities grew over the years in a variety of roles through his years at the TAB, then with NZTR where he led the team as a General Manager or Acting-CEO. 

He also had periods of employment as CEO for Ticketek and for the TRAC group of racing clubs.

Moncur is survived by wife Mary, their children and grandchildren.
