MARK down the next two Fridays as evenings not to be missed at the Hatrick Raceway.
The cream of the New Zealand greyhounds crop will converge on Wanganui to contest heats for two Group races next Friday, in what will be an action-packed start to the new racing season.
Heats for the Group 1 $21,000 First Security Wanganui Cup over 520m will be decided, while heats for the $13,000 Wanganui Stayers at Group 2 level over the demanding 755m trip have been scheduled.
Both group race finals will be decided on Friday, August 14, with the Wanganui Punter of the Year contest also to be held. The winner of that will walk away with a $2500 prize - plus, obviously, tote winnings.
Check out more details about the punters' competition on the www.wanganuigreyhounds.co.nz website, or give Erin Woods a call on 345 6794 for further information.
