If the winner of the Beautide cannot participate in the TAB Eureka before 26 August, then the next highest-placed horse from the Beautide will be offered to fill Tasracing’s slot.
The Beautide is named after the state’s best pacer in the modern era, who won the sport’s pinnacle race, the Inter Dominion, in 2014 and again in 2015, and more than $2.1 Million in stake earnings across his 49 career wins.
The Tasmanian Trotting Club has many attractions on track for the Beautide race meeting, including live music and guest speakers.
Dining packages are limited and can be made by phone with the Tasmanian Trotting Club at (03) 62 144 260 or by email admin@taspacing.com.au
The first race on Saturday is currently scheduled for 17:47, with fields for the remaining races to be released on Tuesday afternoon.
