Selected photos courtesy of HRA, Vic, NSW, QLD, WA, SA. 2 3 Chairman’s Report Chairman’s Report It has been an interesting but frustrating year in Australian harness racing. Whilst there has been much to celebrate, there are still several significant issues which demand the continued focus of administrators and regulators. There has been an abundance of exciting racing with established stars such as Blacks A Fake, Monkey King and Sundons Gift rising to even greater heights alongside the emergence of some outstanding juvenile pacers and trotters. Monkey King was the Barastoc Grand Circuit Champion with a raft of exceptional performances, but he could not hold out Blacks A Fake in the Inter Dominion Pacing Championship Grand Final. The 15,000 spectators at Menangle on Sunday, March 7 knew they were watching a very special moment in Australian sport as Natalie Rasmussen urged “Blackie” to a record fourth Championship win, with Monkey King a gallant runner-up. A month earlier, Chris Lang guided Sundons Gift to his second consecutive Inter Dominion Trotting Championship victory at Moonee Valley. There was a big crowd in attendance and plenty of nostalgia on the final night of harness racing at the popular Melbourne venue. -
