Sunday's Seelite Windows and Doors Redwood Classic is of course a standing-start Group 1 event for two-year-old trotters.

Therefore, punters will need to keep that front of mind when assessing the form for the runners in the time-honoured $50,000 feature.

Below is a list of key trials that feature several of the hopes ahead of Sunday's contest, which may help save you time studying up before Sunday. All the trials below were recorded at tracks throughout Victoria or in South Australia and all are of course started behind the tapes.

Tickets for the Redwood Rattler have been selling well and the trip promises to be bigger than last year. 

To purchase tickets visit trotscountry.com.au and follow the prompts.
