After a record number of nominations the first round of rankings for the 2015 TABtouch Inter Dominion has now been released.
The strength of this year’s Inter Dominion nominations is impressive with the James Rattray trained pacer and recently announced 2015 Australian Harness Horse of the Year, Beautide being ranked number one after taking out the 2015 Inter Dominion Championship held in NSW earlier this year.
Second position in the rankings is filled with the 2014/15 Grand Circuit Champion Christen Me NZ for trainer Cran Dalgety.
Western Australia’s top ranked hope is the Group 1 WA Pacing Cup winner My Hard Copy NZ for trainer Gary Hall Snr; after the untimely retirement of the David Thompson trained David Hercules.
Queensland will have a strong presence in the Championship with the free-legged pacer Avonnova leading the Ian Gurney charge. Avonnova took out the Group 1 2015 Garrard’s Sunshine Sprint in fine style rating 1:51.3 for the mile.
Victoria’s main hope, Lennytheshark from the stable of David Aiken, is hoping to improve his finishing position in the Inter Dominion Championship after finishing 6th behind Beautide in NSW earlier this year.
Anglo-Irish Inter Dominion Series winner, Meadowbranch DJ has been ranked 21st after being an automatic qualifier for the heats of the Perth Inter Dominion.
