As the stars of harness racing prepare for one of the biggest nights on the calendar, a special story emerged from one of the sport’s little players on Boxing Day.
Michael Azzopardi, a hobby horseman from Toolern Vale, produced a memorable moment at Ballarat’s annual post-Christmas meeting when he scored victory with young squaregaiter Abbracciami.
The horse’s dominant 28.3m win on debut in the Plover Security 3YO Maiden Trot was Azzopardi’s first as a trainer and driver.
