Free Entry

Diamonds Day is one of those racedays that feels a bit different. There’s a buzz around the place, a reason to dress up, and this year, the chance to head home with a diamond ring worth more than $5,000.

Entry is free, with racing from around 12 noon, making it an easy option for a Sunday catch-up with friends, a few drinks, and something a little more exciting than your usual afternoon. Public bar and catering will be available on course, so you can settle in and enjoy the day your way.

The diamond giveaway is all part of the fun. Ladies on course receive a coupon for every $5 bet placed, with entries going into the draw throughout the day. One name will be pulled during the afternoon, and if you’re there when it’s called, the ring is yours.

There are also limited hospitality options available for groups wanting to lock in a space and make more of the day. For bookings or enquiries, contact Lindsay Beer on 021 351 499
