Do you reckon we should write more stories about Harness Racing NSW? Especially ones about J. Dumesny and M. Prentice? It seems to get results doesn’t it? There is just one problem with KA Morris’s DQ though. All her horses will get transferred to her husband Robbie, who is the real trainer anyway, or one […]
