RQ announces harness winter programming

Racing Queensland has announced its winter programming for the harness code including a number of select feature races.

Late last month, RQ confirmed certain Sales and QBRED features would remain as programmed – click here to see the selected features – but the TAB Queensland Constellations would not proceed in the wake of COVID-19.

RQ has advised that the following additional features will be held for horses already located in Queensland or who meet its ‘permitted inter-state horse’ conditions. The feature races are:
