New Zealand Trotting Cup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Zealand Trotting Cup is a Group I harness race held annually by the NZ Metropolitan Trotting Club at Addington Raceway in Christchurch, New Zealand. It is considered the country's most prestigious harness racing event.
It is held on the Tuesday of Show Week, three days before the Show Day public holiday. The New Zealand Free For All is held on Show Day. The public holiday in Christchurch is the observance of the Canterbury Anniversary Holiday (16th December in reality). The race meeting, along with the New Zealand Cup for thoroughbreds, forms part of Canterbury's carnival week, along with the Canterbury Agricultural and Pastoral Show. Until 1999, the A&P show was held at showgrounds adjacent to Addington Raceway.
