It’s currently somewhat unusual to hear anyone in the harness racing game speaking about the RIU in positive terms, and with good reason. However, I’ve always believed in giving credit where it’s due.

As we all know the Racing Board, or RITA, or whatever, is fighting an uphill battle to restore racing to its’ former glory.

Apologies for a lack of updates recently due to personal and racing matters, but I have to say the last week has been one of the more unusual Cup weeks I can remember – and I’ve seen a few.
