Harness Racing Update (HRU) is proud to unveil its broadcast division this morning with the first of some 20 videos chronicling 2-year-olds in training at stables based in Florida and Ontario for the winter.

The first video is of Trainer of the Year and Good Guy winner Brian Brown and it was produced by our Florida crew of host Heather Vitale and videographer and editor Aaron Re of Hanover Multimedia of Hanover, PA.

The Ontario videos were produced by Cujo Entertainment’s Curtis MacDonald and feature his wife, Jaimi Fellows, as host.

A new video will be posted on HRU’s YouTube channel every 2-3 days. You can subscribe today, for free, to our YouTube channel.

Every time a new video is posted, HRU will send out notifications through our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts.
