Following consultation with the Breeders, Owners, Trainers and Reinspersons Association (BOTRA) Racing Queensland can advise a minor change to the seeded barrier draw positions effective 18 August.

In mobile start races at Albion Park, the allocation of barriers are to be seeded in the following sequence – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 6, 10, 7, 11, 12 and 13.

This change will result in gates 7 & 10 swapping therefore indicating barrier 10 may be a slightly better barrier draw than 7.

Redcliffe mobile start races will be unaffected given the current maximum field size of 9 starters.

For queries please contact the Racing Queensland Harness Racing Office on (07) 3869 9774 or email harnesshandicapping@racingqueensland.com.au
