It’s what almost all participants (jockeys, drivers, trainers, owners) strive for and something that is merely a pipe dream for most – with that Group 1 glory so elusive and so hard to attain. Saturday June 1 marks a special day … More Harness Jewels Preview
5,360m of gruelling racing will give us a major indication as to who is the dominant mare and filly of the current generation.
