Cup on Tour at Methven

For the first time the IRT New Zealand Trotting Cup will be on show at meetings around the South Island as part of the build-up to the great race at Addington on Tuesday, November 14.

"It's gone on tour before but not to any race meetings so we thought we'd take the Cup to the crowd this time," says Addington Raceway's Sponsorship Manager Rachel Deegan.

The Cup will be on show at Methven this Sunday (October 8) and anyone getting their photo taken with the Cup will then go into the draw to win double General Admission passes to Addington on Cup Day.

"We will have three double passes to give away so it should be a fun way to promote what is always a massive day at Addington on the second Tuesday of November," says Deegan.
