Otago Horse of the Year is Majestic Man

After an outstanding 2020-21 season featuring three Group One wins, Majestic Man (Majestic Son) has been crowned Otago Harness Horse Of The Year.

A brilliant Australian campaign saw the Phil Williamson trained trotter take out the Dullard Cup, Trotting Grand Prix and Aquagait Equine Mile for driver Brad Williamson.

The annual Otago awards function was unable to be held due to Covid.

Many of the award winners were able to be presented their trophies at Oamaru by Harness Racing New Zealand’s Catherine McDonald.
