This raceday is a great opportunity to gather a group together & spend a day at the races.
Get up close to the horses as they thunder down the track, enjoy a picnic on the public lawns or buy food on-site and enjoy the company of friends and family.
Rumour has it the Easter Bunny will be hopping by for a couple of hours in the afternoon with some free chocolates for racegoers.
Children will be kept entertained between races with free use of a bouncy castle and swing ball sets (set-up subject to weather conditions).
Timings are approximate & subject to change.
Ellerslie is pleased to host the LOVERACING.NZ Pony Scurry Series - an exciting initiative aimed at introducing the next generation to the sport of thoroughbred racing.
The Series provides an opportunity for young riders to showcase their skills and compete in a fun and supportive environment, while also offering a hands-on experience in the racing industry, nurturing a love for horses and racing from an early age.
The tie-up stalls at Ellerslie are open for everyone to enjoy a close-up look at the horses.
For everyone’s safety, please stick to the white-pebbled public accessways when you’re in this area and avoid entering any restricted areas unless you have the required accreditation.
