How about we start a little smaller. NZ has a lot of Harness racing on grass tracks. I'm not a fan of it but it would be great publicity if we could have one harness race each Saturday at Flemington (or wherever the main meet is) during the gallops meeting. We could attract a few of their fans over to the dark side.
Katie, my first thought about the Mardi Gras float was what type of horses would be on it ? Geldings and Rigs ?
