Hawke’s Bay Racing gets behind Daffodil Day

28 August 2015

Tomorrow marks New Zealand’s 25th annual Daffodil Day and Hawkes Bay Racing are gearing up for a MASSIVE raceday to support this charity.

They’ll be handing out a daffodil to every raceday attendee this Saturday.

100% of gate donation fees from their Makfi Challenge Stakes will go towards the fantastic cause.

In 2014, Hawke’s Bay Racing raised $20,000.
