These Futurity Finals to be held at Alexandra Park will be 2200m mobiles on July 30, and will be worth $30,000.

All horses must be three-year-old or older pacers and be rated as non-winners for handicapping purposes as at March 31 2021.

All southern horses must also have had a minimum of two races in the South Island.

To be eligible for the final a horse must compete in three official races run by the Auckland Trotting Club from May 7 to July 16.

The race dates for those meetings are 7, 13, 21 and 28 May, June 4 and 18, and July 16 and 30. These races will have a minimum stake of $12,000.

Points can only be accumulated at Alexandra Park and will be awarded as follows: Five points will be allocated for first place, three for second and one for third.

The final will be contested by no more than 13 starters.
