The 2024 National Apprentice Race Series (NARS) is scheduled for March and April, with five Tasmanian apprentices selected for the series.

Sometimes races come along that seem certain to be referenced in the future, and that will be the case from the 1100m Class 1 in Launceston on Friday night.

Trainer Leon Wells is predicting a bright future for his lightly raced filly Shim who put up an impressive performance to win her second race from five starts in Hobart on Sunday.

A horse that won his first start as a 2YO at Caulfield, won at Group 3 level at his second start, has had six different training combinations and at his most recent runs was unplaced in two picnic races in Victoria, could well be the best bet on the card in Hobart on Sunday.

Tassie back in the hunt for 2023 NARS.
