Tom Dabernig predicts little will change for the Lindsay Park operation despite his elevation to the position of David Hayes's training partner.

A son of Hayes's sister Jan, Dabernig has been an assistant trainer to his uncle since 2006 but will become the Hall Of Fame member's partner in Lindsay Park Racing on August 1.

"I'll be based at Euroa but operationally nothing will really change," Dabernig said.

"David will be at Euroa most of the week before heading to Melbourne later in the week for Friday trials and the race meetings."

Dabernig has worked in racing for more than 20 years, starting his time gaining experience with his late grandfather, master trainer Colin Hayes.

Dabernig said he and Hayes had been planning their move for some time but wanted their new partnership to coincide with the beginning of the next racing season.

Hayes's decision to team up with his nephew is part of a succession plan which Dabernig says is eventually likely to result in Hayes's three sons joining the family business.

"In a bigger business, there's always succession planning," Dabernig said.

"There will come a time when they (Hayes's sons) will come into the business but they are a few years away from being ready."

Dabernig said he was focused on the new partnership but thought training in tandem with Hayes would give him the grounding needed to succeed if he decided to train overseas in the future.

"At the moment, I'm very much focused on the now but having this sort of exposure will mean I hopefully have the credentials to get in somewhere overseas if that happens," Dabernig said.
