Champion NZ trotter Sundees Son is about to be given his shot at the Australians.
The record-smashing Dominion winner returned to the trials at Ashburton on Tuesday as his summer is about to get a lot busier than originally intended.
He took on fellow Group 1 winners Heavyweight Hero and Five Wise Men in an elite three-trotter trial and the three hit the line together, with the official result a dead heat between Heavyweight Hero and Sundees Son, with Five Wise Men right along side.
“He trotted well and did everything we wanted,” said driver John Dunn.
