The St Marys Pacing Club on Tasmania's Central East Coast will stage its annual harness racing meeting on Saturday after stewards gave the track the all clear on Monday.

Chief harness steward Adrian Crowther inspected the track on Monday following sold rain in the region last weekend but according to club secretary Craig Woods only a minimal amount of rain was recorded in the St Marys district.

The St Marys annual harness meeting is usually held on New Year's Day but this year's meeting was cancelled after heavy rains caused the track to be unsafe for racing.

"Having had the meeting washed out once this year it would have been devastating had we not been able to race on Easter Saturday," Woods said.

"But thankfully the really heavy rain missed us and if anything what he had fall on the track only helped it because it was very firm and dry.

"We lost our New Year's Day meeting in 2014 and that was transferred to Easter Saturday which was a very successful day so we are expecting the same this year if the weather gods are on our side and we get a fine day.

The $10,000 Southern Cross St Marys Pacing Cup is the feature race on the seven-event card with the $8000 Country Guineas the major support event along with five lower class races.

"We will have a fashions on the field events for adults with a $200 prize and we have organized a junior fashions on the field for various age groups with prizes for all entrants and we have booked a jumping castle for the day and that is always a winner with the children."
