Seven’s horse racing commentary team has grown, with Lizzie Jelfs joining ahead of tomorrow’s Super Saturday at Flemington and Ladies Day at Rosehill.
One of the most influential voices in racing, Lizzie Jelfs brings with her an exceptional knowledge and passion for thoroughbred racing.
She joins Australia’s #1 racing team led by pre-eminent sports broadcaster Bruce McAvaney alongside, Jason Richardson, Emma Freedman, Katelyn Mallyon, and Kate Waterhouse.
Popular segment, Lizzie Likes, will be a mainstay during Seven’s racing coverage throughout the year, as Jelfs dissects form, track conditions and selections from the mounting yard.
Jelfs said:
“I’m delighted to be joining Australia’s best racing team at Seven and can’t wait to get back to the track tomorrow to broadcast one of the premier days on the Autumn racing calendar.
“It’s an absolute thrill to work alongside an incomparable sports broadcaster in Bruce McAvaney, as well as the broader Seven team.”
Managing Director Seven Melbourne and Head of Network Sport, Lewis Martin, said:
“Lizzie is already a familiar face and respected voice to Seven’s racing viewers, and we are thrilled to have her join the team full time in 2022.
“When Lizzie talks, pundits and punters listen. She has a rare and thorough understanding of racing and her impressive knowledge and insights will only strengthen Seven’s already outstanding racing team.”
Some of Australian racing’s most coveted prizes go on the line over the next 10 Saturdays as the Autumn Racing Carnival heats up on Seven, including the $5 million All-Star Mile at Flemington and the 66th running of the $5 million Golden Slipper Stakes at Rosehill Gardens.
