Chris Lang Jnr ready to end five-year hiatus from the races

A familiar name in Victorian harness racing is poised for a long-awaited return to the sulky.

12-time Group 1-winning reinsman Chris Lang Jnr has been absent from Victorian race meetings since his winning drive on Betty Hall at Maryborough in August of 2019, but is likely to end that drought when he partners a horse he trains in a race at Bendigo later this month.
