Harness Racing Victoria’s highly-anticipated 2019-20 Horse of the Year nominees have been revealed, with finalists confirmed for all age and gait categories.
Winners will be announced at the prestigious Gordon Rothacker Medal evening, which has been booked for Sunday, June 27 at the Palladium at Crown.
More money will be directed to breeders under a change to Vicbred first-win bonus allocations, which will take effect in Victoria from October 13.
Victorian hobby trainer Peter Wallis has broken a 28-year drought from the winner’s circle, preparing five-year-old gelding Orch (Lincoln Royal) to a victory at the Melton harness racing meeting on Friday night (Sept 26).
