Rugby league fans are used to seeing the speedy number five flash up the sideline to score. Now the Foxx is bringing that same electric thrill to the Goulburn Harness Racing Club.
Harness Racing NSW ambassador and NRL superstar Josh Addo-Carr will be on track for Sundayās Carnival of Cups meeting at Goulburn and each race will feature a little piece of the Foxx magic.
Addo-Carr and his fashion brand Lets Trot have been working in partnership with Harness Racing NSW for almost a year with his clothing line being seen on tracks across the state.
At Goulburnās Carnival of Cups meeting, the driver of every number five horse will wear a set of specially commissioned Lets Trot colours.
They have been made to replicate the look of one of the most popular Lets Trot t-shirt designs the label has released.
āThey look incredible and itās so cool to see this design that we came up with that we thought would work well as a t-shirt is now a set of race colours that will be competing on race tracks in front of big crowds in Goulburn,ā Addo-Carr said.
āI canāt wait to see them out on whatās going to be a memorable day for harness racing in New South Wales. Lets Trot baby!ā
Josh will also be taking time to meet and greet with the fans trackside. He will be available for autographs and photos with patrons at 1:30pm on the day.
It will be part of a blockbuster day of trackside entertainment for all ages, with a jumping castle, face painting and a mechanical bull ride for the kids.
Australian music royalty Baby Animals, The Screaming Jets and Alex Lloyd will also be performing full sets in between races. They will be supported by Robbie Mortimer and Brooke Supple.
A trackside bar and an array of food vendors will also be in operation.
On track, the eight-race program will culminate in the inaugural running of the $60,000 Goulburn Soldiers Club Merino Cup.
