CHRISTIAN Williams has already won his "home" Grand National in Wales and I'm backing the young Bridgend handler to add the Scottish version to his c.v with KITTY'S LIGHT in Ayr's big race at 3.35. The former Paul Nicholls jockey saddled Potters Corner to win at Chepstow in 2019 and Kitty's Light has been campaigned at the highest chasing level…

Big fields, crowds returning to Addington and competitive harness racing all added up to TAB NZ customers betting record amounts on yesterday's New Zealand Trotting Cup meeting at Addington. Turnover on yesterday's 13-race card reached $7.5 million, a record high for any New Zealand race meeting based on figures held for the last 20 years. This was…

It's the second Tuesday in November and that means it's New Zealand Trotting Cup day at Addington.

Trainer Ray Green received reward for taking the New Zealand Cup champ across the Tasman on Saturday night, with Copy That having stalked Bondi Lockdown and…

Kiwi star Copy That starts his road to redemption at Melton on Saturday night. It was just over nine months ago when the reigning New Zealand Cup winner - then arguably New Zealand's best pacer - had a Melbourne raid derailed by a freakish paddock accident. Copy That lashed out in his yard and fractured a splint bone in a hind leg. But…
