WANGANUI GREYHOUND RACING CLUB
Another of the Code's stand alone racing venues, Hatrick Raceway has recently been the 'pulse' of greyhound racing in the Central Districts region, hosting in excess of 70 race meetings each season. A tight circuit combined with a fast racing surface contribute to all-action race viewing, both on course and via Trackside. The Clubs hosts such significant events as the New Zealand Breeders Stakes, the Wanganui Distance and the Spion Rose.
