Harness racing — also known as trotting or pacing — is the third major racing discipline available on the Citibet platform. Weekly harness racing events from top tracks in Australia, the United States, and Europe are available for online betting through www.citibet.net.

About Harness Racing

In harness racing, horses pull a two-wheeled cart called a sulky and are driven by a driver. Races are divided into trotting (diagonal leg movement) and pacing (lateral leg movement) events. Both formats are covered extensively on the Citibet platform.

Platform Details

Harness racing provides an exciting alternative to flat horse racing, with regular events scheduled throughout the week. Citibet's pari-mutuel system ensures that all harness racing bets are placed at genuine track odds, with fair and transparent payouts for winning wagers.

Harness Racing vs. Flat Horse Racing

While flat horse racing involves horses galloping freely, harness racing sees horses trot or pace while pulling a sulky. The gait is strictly regulated — horses that break stride may be penalised, adding a tactical dimension to betting strategy.
