There's nothing as exciting as the spectacle of a good harness race.
Harness racing is one of the most thrilling, action-packed, colourful entertainments.
It's also extremely popular with the betting public. Harness racing is one of three codes of racing in Australia. Many punters believe the favourite is more likely to win in harness racing than in the other codes of racing. The unique world-wide sport of harness racing is very different to thoroughbred racing. The standardbred may look similar to a thoroughbred, but it is smaller, with heavier bones, a larger body, shorter legs, a more robust build and certainly greater endurance.
