Early start to Addington meeting on April 24
Addington's meeting on Friday, April 24 has been brought forward by a couple of hours.
The change has been made to minimise the impact on wagering as a result of the first ever game at the new One New Zealand Stadium in Christchurch between the Crusaders and the Waratahs. That match kicks off at 7.35pm.
HRNZ, in conjunction with Addington Raceway and Entain, have agreed to start the 10-race programme at 3.14pm, with the final race scheduled for 7.22pm.
The Taylor Mile/Anzac Cup Group 1 meeting at Alexandra Park, scheduled for the same evening, is unaffected by these changes, with Race 1 set down for 5.16pm.
