Kiwi trainer Scott Dickson pulled off a massive plunge in the last race at Cambridge this evening with Melton Mogul, which was backed from $51.oo into $7.50 with bookmakers on both sides of the Tasman and landed the prize. Media Mogul came into the race with the form of a three-legged camel with a record […]
Story by Garrick Knight, Harness Xpress New Zealand’s export market is facing a strong headwind at present and latest projections have us on track to record the lowest numbers since records began. According to HRNZ, there were only 230 horses cleared out of the country by the end of September, and that is projected to […]
Axel Rose was the odds-on $1.80 favorite to win race 4 today at the Wyndham trots, and with good reason too for it has stepped away well, sat 1-1 early, been taken to the front mid-race and bolted in to win on debut at this track eighteen days ago and looked set to repeat the […]
Reinsman Jay Abernathy was charged by Stewards with an unacceptable drive for his steer on the horse challenging for the lead early in this race at Auckland in August.

Ice, meth, P, crack, crystal. Call it what you like, it is still one of the most evil drugs ever to be seen on this earth. There are no winners out of this stuff except the crims who make or import it and don’t get caught. The rest of us lose in every way, those […]
By Garrick Knight; Harness Xpress Rumours have a habit of getting around like wildfire in our relatively small industry and the main one over the past fortnight relates to the former Alabar Stud. The well-appointed 102-hectare seaside Waiau Pa property is up for lease after being vacated by Alabar recently. Concurrently, Auckland Trotting Club officials […]
If QLD harness’s half baked idea for a replacement premier venue is an 800m track inside the Toowoomba gallops track then I’m staying where I am or moving to Auckland……. I favour the later…….especially if Alabar’s farm is the new training centre as rumored, right by the Ocean. Belle from Burnie
