Join us on Saturday, 15 February for the popular J Swap Contractors Matamata Breeders Stakes Raceday.
 

The most popular raceday on our summer calendar and the pinnacle of provincial racing, the event needs no introduction. 

This action-packed day sees top-class horses and jockeys compete for glory in the four black type races on offer, supported by an additional five races to keep the heart racing all day long. But that's not all, from feature races to family-friendly activities - there's something for everyone oncourse. 

Cheer on your favourite horse as it charges down the track, enjoy the delish food and beverage on offer in our general admission spaces, or you can take it up a notch and purchase one of our hospitality packages for a truly memorable day out. Whether you're here for the races or here to soak up the social atmosphere - this day won't disappoint. 

Returning for 2025 is Fashion in the Field, our qualifier for The Ned Prix de Fashion, and we're expecting the competition on the fashion runway to be as fierce as that on the track. Keen to try your luck? More information here.
