Final flourish for Team Teal campaign

Harness Racing New Zealand's eighth Team Teal campaign will wrap up with a big day at Motukarara on Sunday.

The annual fund-raiser for ovarian cancer research started on February 1, with money raised every time a female driver wins a race. The money comes from HRNZ, clubs and drivers' individual sponsors.

So far the 2025 campaign has raised over $16,000, with 63 wins. Sam Ottley has the most with 14.

On Sunday, the Team Hutchinson-sponsored race day at Motukarara, will see the campaign finish with a flourish.

One of the features will be the first ever Teal Trot. Racegoers will get the opportunity to bid on which Team Teal driver they would like to push them in a sulky for 50 metres.

There will be five sulkies in the "race". The winner will get a $250 prezzy card. The Teal Trot will be held after Race 9 (4.27pm). 

There'll also be dual sulky races and Team Teal collectors on-course.
