Sanderson to head north for a State of Origin-style challenge

Still on a high after winning the Mildura Pacing Cup, Abby Sanderson is now preparing to represent Victoria in a harness racing challenge for concession drivers.

The 18-year-old will join fellow Victorians George Chamouras, Tasmyn Potter, Harry O’Neill and Grace Bilney for two heats in Young tonight, with the following rounds to be staged at Shepparton on Wednesday.

The series is named in honour of Nic Dewar, who tragically lost his life in a car accident in 2018.
