one of the aspects that I enjoy about harness racing is the class structure - it is simple to understand and identify and makes punting easier.
Of course, the class structure is also probably responsible for all the good horses running second in races - they are held back to avoid going up a class :smile:

LOL - I remember seeing some absolute classic examples of this.
Rameses easily grabbed the lead at the start and was pulled back to the field in a mile race to end up three back on the fence @ $1.50, finished 5th and came out next start and won easily by 20m @ $6.00!!!
I was there that night standing next to the "race" back to the stalls. I started laughing audibly as the driver passed me by and he winked at me  .
Where are the stewards!
