From February 1 to March 15, female drivers across Australia and New Zealand donned teal racing pants, with HRV contributing $200 for every Victorian victory by a reinswoman.
This year’s campaign saw 18 female drivers in the winner’s circle, with Kerryn Manning leading the charge with 11 wins.
“Victoria’s reinswomen have been outstanding on and off the track since February 1, securing significant wins and raising awareness for the Team Teal movement,” HRV CEO Matt Isaacs said.
“The teal pants have become such an iconic representation of the strength of female participation in Victorian harness racing, and that was only enhanced with the likes of Kerryn Manning, Kate Gath, Ellen Tormey, and their peers again producing such great success.”
Founded in Victoria by Duncan McPherson in honour of his late wife Lyn, Team Teal has raised more than $3.1 million to advance gynaecological cancer research, prevention, and education.
A huge thank you to everyone who played a part in this year’s #TeamTeal campaign!
