The build-up, the drama and that winning feeling – the magical moments of this year’s Del-Re National A. G. Hunter Cup will be savoured by a big audience.

Saturday’s 10-race program, including the 9.07pm headliner, can be enjoyed live and free on Racing.com’s channels 78, 68 and 7plus as well as Sky Racing and TrotsVision, continuing partnerships that took the Victoria Cup and Inter Dominion to all corners of Australia.

Ryan Phelan, Adam Hamilton and Michael Guerin will be joined by race caller Dan Mielicki and roving reporters Gareth Hall, Jason Bonnington and Shannon O’Sullivan for the broadcast, which is slated to kick off at 5.55pm ahead of the first.

“This is the biggest night in Victorian harness racing and it deserves the all-star treatment,” Phelan said.

“We are blessed to have a Hunter Cup field that shapes as one of the best races we’ve seen on Australian soil in a long time and I can’t wait to pick it apart and then watch on as the fun unfolds.”

The big races, including Captain Ravishing’s tilt at the Cogs Services 4YO Bonanza, will all be in the spotlight, but you won’t have to wait until Saturday to wrap yourself in the drama.

Phelan, Hamilton and Mielicki will be at the desk on Racing.com’s channels 78, 68 and 7-plus tonight from 8.30pm for a special Hunter Cup preview show, diving into the outstanding line-up of hopefuls as well as looking at the support card. The screening will then have an encore at 11pm on Thursday night.

It’s part of great coverage of the famed race night, which can also be enjoyed live and free via TrotsVision.com.au or on Sky Racing, whose presenter Brittany Graham will be on course both Friday and Saturday nights for the outstanding Grand Circuit cards.
