Harness racing enthusiasts are gearing up for an exciting weekend as the focus shifts to the Finals of the prestigious Ladbrokes Inter Dominion in Australia. The event boasts a significant prize purse, with the pacers division offering a whopping $1 million and the Trotters division $500,000. Alongside these marquee races, three other Group 1 events are set to captivate audiences: the $150,000 Queensland Derby, $150,000 Queensland Oaks, and the $150,000 Golden Girl.
Leading the charge in the Ladbrokes Queensland Oaks is the impressive New Zealand filly, Captain’s Mistress. With an unbeaten record in her Australian outings, she is poised to dominate the field. Meanwhile, the Ladbrokes Queensland Derby presents a more open field, with Hesitate emerging as a strong contender from the pole position. The Golden Girl race, marred by the loss of star mare Chynchilla, sees Eye Keep Smiling aiming for her tenth consecutive victory, backed by her impeccable form.
In the Trotters Inter Dominion Final, Victorian trotter Arcee Phoenix holds favoritism with a favorable pole draw, while New Zealander Bet N Win showcases impressive form heading into the race. The Pacers Inter Dominion Final promises an exhilarating showdown, with Leap to Fame looking to continue his stellar performances and secure his place as Australia’s richest pacer.
Trainer-driver Grant Dixon remains confident in Leap to Fame’s abilities, despite concerns over the grueling 3157 meters distance. Saturday’s race meeting will feature a star-studded card of events, kicking off at 5 pm. With a total of five supporting races, harness racing fans are in for a thrilling weekend of top-class competition.
