WTR & the NZB Kiwi

Waikato Thoroughbred Racing is proud to be one of the inaugural slot holders in the $4.5m NZB Kiwi

The race, taking place as a part of Champions Day (8 March) at Ellerslie Racecourse will be like nothing ever seen before in New Zealand and we're proud to have secured a slot for our stakeholders in the Waikato. 

As we embark on this exciting journey, we're going to be keeping our members and interested parties informed every step of the way as we head towards selecting our runner and then cheering them on come raceday. 

Check back for more updates each month before the big day itself!
