Herb to bring the heat in Queensland’s Trot Rods series

A conversation at a 60th birthday party planted the seed for James Herbertson to compete in the 2023 edition of Trot Rods. 

The Victorian-based driver will be the lone interstate competitor in this year’s Trot Rods finale night on Wednesday May 24 at ‘The Triangle.’

The 23-year-old currently sits atop the Victorian state drivers premiership table, with 75 wins to his name so far this season.

But, it was a chat with Redcliffe Harness Racing Club President Bernie Ring at a party for James’ father, prominent trainer Ashleigh Herbertson, that set the wheels in motion.

“Bernie is a good family friend of ours and he came down for Dad’s 60th birthday around the end of last year,” Herbertson said.
