This weekend there are five harness racing meetings culminating with the big guns stepping out in the Ashburton Flying Stakes on Monday.
It is the third week of the ringaround competition and a link to the full leaderboard is posted below.
Last week was tough but the ringaround selectors stil had six winners and a number of other placings.
The best winning dividend went to Dylan Ferguson when he selected Tennyson Inlet as his best chance. Tennyson Inlet won at Manawatu on Thirsday night and paid $14.80 for a win on the tote. Dylan has also skyrocketed to the top of the leaderboard on the back of that win.
The.five meetings this week are Cambridge in the North and Forbury, Addington, Tuapeka and Ashburton in the South.
Note: Just a change to the format of the competition for drivers. In the event of any licensed harness racing driver winning a prize in the competition we can only donate that winning amount to a charity of their choice. A cash prize would contravene the rules of HRNZ. Thank you to Edward Rennell for clearing that up.
