Open Day Wednesday 27 April

The first race meeting on the Riccarton Park Racecourse Polytrack will be held on Thursday 5 May 2022.  The first race is scheduled for 11:54 am.

Prior to that historic raceday the Canterbury Jockey Club invites you to an open day to have an up-close look at this innovative new racing, trialing, and training surface.

From 3pm to 5pm on Wednesday 27 April all are welcome.

The format will be simple with the Club providing a free ‘Sausage-sizzle’ BBQ and refreshments at the 1600 metres start on the Polytrack.  This provides the opportunity to view the surface, find out how it was built and what and how it is maintained. Access is from the gates 100 metres inside the main Racecourse Road gates.

To assist with catering purposes it will be appreciated if you would register your plans to attend by 12 noon on Tuesday 26 April 2022 with [email protected] .
