Queensland’s premier racing period is again fast approaching and it is with great excitement that we look towards the 2014 Queensland Winter Trotting Carnival.
The mild and clear evenings regularly experienced in Queensland during the winter provide the perfect setting for the carnival’s Group racing calendar.
Each winter the industry’s participants and fans look forward to the Queensland Winter Trotting Carnival as it brings together the best pacers in Queensland and Australasia to compete for the rich prizemoney on offer.
The 2014 Queensland Winter Trotting Carnival will have a new refreshed look this
Chairman’s Welcome
year with racing on the Gold Coast in temporary recess. The feature races historically held at Parklands will now be conducted at Queensland’s premier track, Albion Park.
To accommodate this, minor changes to the feature race schedule have occurred. I encourage you to familiarise yourself with the schedule detailed in this information booklet.
To ensure the continued development of the Queensland Winter Trotting Carnival, Racing Queensland will again increase its focus on attracting the highest possible calibre race horses to Queensland. I encourage you to put this year’s carnival races at the top of
your target race list and I trust the information in this booklet will be useful for your preparation. If you need further information please contact the Racing Queensland harness handicapping team on 07 3869 9774.
We look forward to seeing many of you at the track throughout winter. Our clubs are waiting to show you what a great time can be delivered during the 2014 Queensland Winter Trotting Carnival.

Metropolitan win definition: As Queensland has implemented a state specific handicapping penalty
known as ‘Q’ class racing, the following handicapping penalties will be incurred following a winning performance:
• Any race for 4YO or older horses with total prizemoney of $15,000 or greater will result in a metropolitan penalty in accordance with the HRA guidelines
• Any race with prizemoney of $11,000 - $14,999 will result in a ‘Q’ penalty in tandem with a career penalty
• Any 2YO or 3YO only races will only incur handicapping penalties in accordance with the HRA guidelines
Field Selection: For the purpose of selecting fields for any race held at the metropolitan meeting or for
any race where it is specified in the race conditions, the fields will be selected by the RQ Handicapping Panel under the manual race field selection policy which refers to the following criteria assessed equally. Current numerical figure form (last 6 race starts), margins beaten, mile rates, class of races and opposition, positions in running, barrier positions and interference received.
In standing start events the above listed criteria is relevant. Additionally all standing start form of a horse along with its last 10 starts will be analysed when selecting fields in such events.
