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.

The Corner with Garry Chittick

Mary and I had a great weekend. As usual, Taupo Race Club put on a couple of days that encourage you to go to the races. The lead-in to the day was an hour or so at the iconic Yacht Club Bar – an easy place to be, perched above the lake: wine, beer and pizzas provided. A chance to meet and greet, bearing in mind the visitors that make the effort to attend.
