Race replays of the week

On North American harness racing tracks it’s all about speed over a mile trip, in Australia it’s a mix of both standing start and mobile features across a range of track sizes, in New Zealand it could be about an extreme two-mile contest or a grass track race featuring non-race winners and in Europe the champion trotter is celebrated as a king of the track.

In Harnesslink Race Replays of the Week we bring you a snapshot into the very best contests from around the harness racing tracks of the world.

NEW ZEALAND REPLAY 

The NZ Cup, the biggest pacing race on New Zealand soil, took place on Tuesday with Swayzee, an Aussie raider, simply proving too tough for the Kiwis. A mid-race move to the front decided the event with Akuta unable to muster enough late to master the visitor.
