There are lots of harness racing betting opportunities this weekend across Australia, with fourteen meetings scheduled over Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Friday afternoon’s action comes courtesy of Warragul, with seven races, and Wagga, who host a six-race card. Gloucester Park and Melton Park both stage nine races during the evening, with eight contests at Menangle Park, Gold Coast and Globe Derby respectively.
There are a host of feature races on Friday with the $35,000 Group 3 Brennan Memorial over 2536m at Gloucester Park the highlight. Has The Answers, trained by Tony Svilicich and driven by Chris Lewis, will be a short-priced favourite to record his fifth victory in a row.
The first of two $20,000 prizes at Melton Park is the City of Ballarat Claiming Masters Final over 2240m. Notaswethort got an undisputed lead on his way to victory in last week’s heat and another easy run from the front will see him difficult to beat. The other heat winner from last week, That’s Mister Ali, is unlikely to be suited by a steady tempo but will be staying on at the end. The Preux Chevalier Free For All is also over 2240m and a competitive contest is on the cards. Cincinnati Kid and Karlsruhe will be difficult to get by, being drawn one and two respectively. Which order they finish in is open to question, however, with Karlsruhe attempting to go from gate to wire.
There are also two $20,000 races at Menangle Park, with the Kevin Robinson Cup over 2300m taking centre stage. Hesa Buzzin was victorious last time at Harold Park beating Twelve Paces and Slick Bromac, both of whom re-oppose. Lonestar Legend finished eighth in the Miracle Mile back in November before winning the Golden Mile at Menangle Park in January and that form will see him go close.
Globe Derby returns on Saturday evening with a seven-race program whilst there are eight races at Kilmore, Newcastle and Kalgoorlie. The feature meeting is at Albion Park with ten races, where Blacks A Fake will continue his build-up for a hat-trick attempt in the $200,000 Queensland Pacing Championship at the end of October.
Two meetings cap off a great weekend of action on Sunday with sixteen races in total, eight each from Launceston and Melton Park. Keep a close eye on the harness racing results as they come through!
