Standardbred Association Queensland
Not Just for Racing
The Standardbred Association Queensland Inc. (SAQ) promotes the Standardbred as a successful and versatile horse that can excel in many disciplines outside their traditional role of harness racing. Through shows and organised displays, we highlight the abilities and exceptional temperament of the Standardbred horse.
About Us
What We Do
SAQ has many goals and ideas for the future. We aim to continue to grow our Association so that we can build relationships and rapport with owners, trainers, members, the equine industry and the general public. We promote Standardbreds as not only great harness racehorses but as competition horses in a variety of disciplines as well.
We aim to be an Association with a common interest: “To promote contact between Standardbred owners regardless of experience or the discipline their horse/s are involved in”.
