More smiley faces at Hobart tonight.

Maybe they mean half the total prizemoney which was what 1st was in the past

I rechecked it and it says “one half of the winners prize money will be paid”.

For that they shouldn't even have to turn up!

I read in a story that Hilly received 50% of the winning prize money too.

Confirmed this on Harness Web. Despite the connections getting 50% of the winning prize money Hilly has gone up four points for the win in the NR system and if he was in WA he would be awarded 10 points for his winning performance. His HWOE has increased by the whole of the amount he won too.

The four points for 50% seems a little unfair to me but I am not well versed in the NR system.
