It’s official! Harnesslink has new owner

Worldwide harness racing website Harnesslink officially has a new owner.

Harnesslink welcomes Australian businessman Mick Harvey as the new owner of the substantial harness racing website, after the deal was finalised with a handshake with international bloodstock agent John Curtin who’s owned and run the website for twenty three years.

After so many years of dedication to Harnesslink, Curtin is delighted to hand the baton on to Harvey who is passionate about promoting harness racing world wide.

It was a big weekend for Harvey who after finalising the transaction with Curtin on Sunday, flew to Christchurch on Monday and attended the races at Ashburton where his horse Ripples won for Burnham trainer Mark Jones.

Ripples will now start in the $200,000 Dunstan Horsefeeds Sires’ Stakes Final on Show Day.

Harvey also owns Kingman and if he gets his standing start ticket today in Australia for Luke McCarthy, Kingman will fly to New Zealand to take his place as a late entry in the $1,000,000 IRT New Zealand Cup.
