I wish Tassie every success with this series, but I would say women are already as completely eligible as their male counterparts to contest every race & championship series in Australia and worldwide in the trots. And that's one of the truly great things about our sport. Tonight, for example, 10 races at Melton, 5 won by men and 5 by women. A driver's sex simply does not make any difference in the pursuit of success.
