Mark Dux says thank you to Marburg :: Racing Queensland

By Jordan Gerrans

Mark Dux recalls fond memories of driving for the late Graham Harriott, so the trainer was thrilled to finally win the race named in his honour on Sunday afternoon.

The Marburg Harness Racing Association ran the first-ever all trotters meeting in the Sunshine State on Sunday with eight events hosted at the track.

The Marburg club had long held the Graham Harriott Memorial Handicap as a feature day but for the first time in 2025 they incorporated it into the all trotters program.

Dux’s Gracias was able to score in the 2550 metre contest for the square gaiters with Angus Garrard steering him to victory.

A front row draw was key for Dux and reinsman Garrard as Gracias led in the early exchanges and was not headed again.

The five-year-old gelding eventually scored by a touch over five metres in the feature event.
