Nelli 432 Report post Posted February 5, 2020 Could signal how few of the public (including those that work at the Herald) know harness racing exists. The average person in Hamilton wouldn't have known the Jewels were on last time round. How to get good media coverage to attract new fans from outside is a challenge.

eljay 1,719 Report post Posted February 5, 2020 TM - I can't take all the credit. It was pointed out to me. But your comment is very pertinent. If they want you to read their publication but then hide stuff away like this and then also want you to pay to read it belies logic to me.

Nelli 432 Report post Posted February 6, 2020 I might suggest to Cambridge that they consider changing the futurity to trotters. Most trotters don't start racing till late 3yos and only get serious as 4yos. But there there are no premium races for them in the NI apart from the Jewels and open class races against the big guns.
