Three Time Australian Horse of the Year winner King Of Swing

The 2024 Australian Harness Horse of the Year awards will be announced Tuesday 25th of February at 8:50am on Sky's 'The Morning Line'. 

In any other year, multiple horses would have been stand outs to be crowned the Australian Harness Horse of the Year. The likes of Just Believe, Keayang Zahara and Leap To Fame all had outstanding 2024 seasons, however the ultimate prize can only be won by one.

IF crowned tomorrow morning Just Believe would become the second trotter to win the Australian Harness Horse of the Year title joining Maori's Idol who won the award in 1978. Keayang Zahara would also be the second trotter, but the first juvenile trotter ever and if Leap To Fame wins it will be back to back crowns for the 2023 winner.

For all the past award winners head to HRA - Australian Harness Racing Awards - Chronicles.
