WHEN it comes to a 'Jack of all trades' within harness racing, South Australian Mario Borg has it covered.
A part of the industry for "as long as I can remember", Borg's various roles include trainer, driver and administrator.
On the administration side, Borg is a committee member with Strathalbyn Harness Racing Club and former President of Country Clubs Association.
At Globe Derby tomorrow night, Borg will present as a sponsor via his stud farm Bellmoure Park, which is a proud supporter of the Southern Cross Final for three-year-old colts and geldings.
Away from harness racing Borg operates his Adelaide Battery Company.
