"The Committee has made the decision to cancel the January 19 Official Competition in light of the horrific bush fires that are affecting so many people at present," the post on Facebook read.
"With so much uncertainty as to what may or may not happen over the coming week, the possibility that our grounds could be used as a safe haven for horses from the ACT and surrounds plus the fact that the heavy smoke is making it near impossible to ride in the lead up to the event, we feel it is in everyone's best interest to make the call now.
"This means all entries will be transferred to the February 9 Competition, with the plan of running the same program," the post said.
"Should you wish to scratch, please log into nominate.com.au as normal and scratch from there, you will be issued a full refund.
"Thank you for your understanding."
