This year the Elmore Pacing Cup will be held on Tuesday, December 22, with a great night of harness racing guaranteed.
However, for the second year in a row, the race meet will be held at the Bendigo Harness Racing Club as the Elmore Harness Track undergoes upgrades.
The night, which will feature the Elmore Pacing Cup and the Elmore Trotters Cup, will also have live music and entertainment to make sure everyone has a night they will remember.
“It’s a perfect night for Christmas parties or other gatherings,” Elmore Harness Racing Club secretary Gary Cooper said.
“We’re going to have high-class racing, live music and a courtesy bus bringing guests from Rochester and Elmore to Bendigo.”
Because the race meet has been moved to Bendigo, the prize money has been increased — meaning high-quality fields and racing.
“Up to $10,000 will be on offer for some of the races so we will see some really high-quality horses come and race,” Gary said.
“If you are a harness racing fan or are looking for a great way to end the work year, there isn’t a better place to come.”
For more information regarding the courtesy bus, phone Gary Cooper on 0448 855 850.
The Bendigo Harness Racing Club is at 646 McIvor Hwy, Junortoun.
