Aspiring AFL players have Auskick and the NRL has League Stars, so now harness racing has Mini Trots. As Dr Harry finds out, this program is a great stepping stone for budding young drivers to get involved in the sport. With their pint -sized ponies and scaled down buggies, these young drivers compete in organised races at harness racing tracks around Australia as well as agricultural shows and special gala day events. But it’s not all about competition, the kids get to have lots of fun and learn horsemanship, reining and driving skills in a safe and nurturing environment.
