WARWICK’S biggest Boxing Day bash is back and Rose City residents will don their best Hawaiian shirts for this year’s racing extravaganza.
The 2020 Maydan Livestock Transport/Freestone Feedlot Boxing Day Races next week will adopt a Hawaiian theme.
Warwick Turf Club president Phil Grant said track preparations were going as planned in the lead up to the race.
Final nominations are due next Tuesday/Wednesday.
“At this stage, we’re looking at six races but I wouldn’t be surprised if we did an extra race,” Grant said.
“I expect a large number of horses because we’re the only other place racing on Boxing Day and the wet weather around will mean a few people have missed out on giving their horse a start, so they’re looking for anywhere to get running.”
