A new chapter begins for Harnesslink! I'm thrilled to share that I, Mick Harvey, have taken the reins of Harnesslink, the world's premier independent platform for harness racing news and information. This is a significant moment, and I'm incredibly excited about the future.
For over two decades, Harnesslink has been a cornerstone of the harness racing world, offering unparalleled coverage and insights. The foundation laid by John Curtin over the past 23 years is truly impressive. He built a platform that not only provides an independent voice for the industry but also connects people across the globe and celebrates the sport at every level. I extend my sincere gratitude to John for his unwavering dedication and the remarkable legacy he's created.
My primary objective is straightforward: to continue and strengthen Harnesslink's role as a vital resource for the global harness racing community. Our industry thrives on positive coverage, open communication, and mutual support across all sectors. This includes everyone from breeders, trainers, and drivers to owners, fans, and administrators. And this is the part most people miss... a strong, unified community is the heart of any successful sport.
Harnesslink will remain committed to delivering news, features, and insightful analysis with the same independence and passion that has always defined us. But I also have ambitious plans to expand our reach, foster greater participation, and shine a brighter spotlight on the remarkable individuals who make this sport so special.
Harness racing has always been about community, hard work, and an undeniable love for horses. I'm deeply proud to be a part of this story and eager to contribute to the industry's future through Harnesslink. But here's where it gets controversial... Some might argue that independent platforms are becoming less relevant in today's fast-paced digital world. What do you think? Do you believe that independent voices are still crucial for the harness racing industry? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
