The feature races are rolling around quickly on the Tasmanian harness racing calendar and Duncan Dornauf doesn’t miss a thing in the Harness Highlights podcast.

The Devonport track has recently been resurfaced and it produced some fast times across the nine race card last Sunday. Watchmylips was a very impressive winner there and looks hard to beat in the Raider Stakes Final on 26 September.

From that program both Gareth and Kent Rattray produced superb drives, making things difficult when trying to single out one for Drive of the Week.

Duncan previews the big 10-race card in Hobart on Sunday, pointing punters in the direction of one that may come up a big price in the last race of the night.

  • 0:27 – Hobart recap
  • 2:22 – Devonport recap
  • 10:40 – Trial scene
  • 11:45 – Drive of the week
