Queensland harness racing wrap
Darren Clayton gives us a review of the week's harness racing action in Queensland.
Razzleme Dazzles won the two-year-old trotting final in Queensland. Chantal Turpin has won 11 races this season from five horses and set three age records. You No Ill Be Late won in the three-years-olds Springboard Final. Susan Is Her Name won both her starts this year for Turpins. She was a winner at her first Victorian appearance the day before the final. She is now being sent to the leading stable of Emma Stewart. The winning rate of 2.00.9 for the 2138-metre stand shattered the age record which has stood for five years.
Chris Frisby is leaving Queensland after almost six months of training. Jenden Strike and Aunty Bella secured wins at The Creek on Saturday. Fri's next stop is Bathurst. A unty bella is going to take a shot at the Vicbred Series. Our Sunset Delight is a winner of three races from six. The two-year-old is the stable companion of Our Sunset Delights. He has won three of six races. His stable mate Our Sunrise Delighting has three wins from 6.
