We present the results of new high resolution ATCA observations of SNR J0519-6926. We found that this SNR exhibits a typical "horseshoe" appearance with $alpha$=--0.55$pm$0.08 and D=28$pm1$~pc. No polarization (or magnetic fields) were detected to a level of 1\%. This is probably due to a relatively poor sampling of the $uv$ plane caused be observing in "snap-shot" mode.
