    New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing [NZTR] and Auckland Thoroughbred Racing [ATR] would like to provide an update on the 'Return to Racing' for Ellerslie Racecourse.

    Following the Club's abandonment on Wednesday 10 April, all work that was prescribed has now been completed.

    A set of eight trials were held successfully at Ellerslie Racecourse today [Monday 15 April] giving the Club clearance to return to racing. 

    A number of industry personnel and senior jockeys were in attendance at the trials today to monitor the surface including representatives from; Strathayr, the Racing Integrity Board, NZTR and ATR. 

    The overarching feedback NZTR and ATR received following the trials was positive, with the following comments provided by senior jockeys on the state of the track:

    "The track felt a lot better – they [ATR] obviously had done a lot of work on it since Wednesday. The horses are getting a good bit of traction and there’s actually a bit of kick back now, which highlights the more traction the horses are getting." - Senior Jockey Warren Kennedy

    "I noticeably felt more traction and more give in the track. The machinery work and the spreading of sand since last Thursday has certainly seen an improvement.” - Senior Jockey Craig Grylls

    The first race meeting set to be held back at Ellerslie will be Saturday 20 April 2024. We extend our gratitude to Chris Hay from Elwick Racecourse for his assistance and advice post-abandonment.

    Billy Jacobsen rides KINGFISHER to win 10/2 and in 3 starts since without him on top it hasn't paid a divy.

    Makes you wonder what goes on with their jock selections.

    I've noticed he never seems to get consistent rides on the same horse. Maybe some sort of attitude problem - who knows?

    Max somehow hits the jackpot with a huge trifecta to pretty much wrap up the night. I was already feeling unwell but now I'm positively nauseous. I think that's pretty much game over so I'll wrap up the final two races in the morning.

    Favourites race. Jack alone gets the trifecta but no change at the top. Time running out to catch our runaway leader Gee.

    The rank outsider prevails in a 5 horse field and everyone is heaving a sigh of relief that Gee missed it.
