Whangarei Racing Club - Ruakaka, Northland, New Zealand - Horse Racing Tracks on Waymarking.com

Long Description:
Ruakaka racecourse is home to Whangarei Racing Club and boasts expansive ocean views and hosts eight meetings per season. The racing surface has a well-earned reputation as New Zealand’s finest ‘all weather’ track open all year. The reliability of the racing surface makes Ruakaka popular with trainers outside the area who base themselves here during the winter months. The Club holds licences to race 10 times in the 2010/11 season. Both thoroughbred and harness racing is held. The earliest documentation, for the race course, I can find is 1906 but it may have been operating before that time.
