“The perfect weather conditions contributed to a significant boost in visitor numbers a year compared to the previous year, which made this to our largest cup day since COVID-19 restrictions in 2021,” said Heddo.
“After the success of our Country Music Raceday in September last year and our Groove on the Grass Raceday in March, it was clear that the local community accepted a complete day with high-quality races with lively off-track entertainment.
“The racing program showed three races in group 3 and a listed race with over 1.8 million US dollars offered in advance.
“High -quality fields, competitive races and stimulating surfaces provided an electrical atmosphere for racing visitors.
“From the track, the crowd enjoyed a hotly contested fashion in the field competition and a performance after the race of the popular band X-Mentals who have completed a day to remember.
“I look forward to continuing our cooperation with Racing NSW to research further opportunities to further improve this fantastic event.”
