Harness Racing Victoria will again introduce restricted two-year-old races from February to create more opportunities for young horses.

When applying the same method last year, HRV’s Racing Department found that more two-year-old races received sufficient nominations when opportunities were condensed in the year’s early months.

The royally bred Muscle Hill horse E L Titan Tr 1:51.4 ($726,344), who is standing this season at Goulburn Valley Equine under the banner of Haras Des Trotteurs, is currently the leading percentage sire of two-year-old trotters in North America and one of the leading sires in the very competitive New Year Sires Stake program.

Keayang Bazlenka is set to be given a break and aimed for the big two-year-old features at the back end of the season after completing a memorable start to his racing career this week.

Harness Racing Victoria will implement a trial of two and three-year-old concessions from July 1.

The initiative follows feedback from HRV’s March roadshows and consultation with industry stakeholders, including the Victorian Trainers and Drivers Association and the Harness Racing Advisory Council.
