Rotorua's cup day went off without a hitch thanks to the warm weather and great atmosphere, says an organiser.
Rotorua Race Club general manager Damien Radesic said there was a record crowd with more than 1500 people.
"It was a brilliant day, the sun was shining, the place was full,
and there was a great atmosphere going on."
While many went to see the action on the track, it was a good day out for those who just wanted to do something a bit different.
Entry was free, there was live music, kids' entertainment such as magic shows and lolly scrambles and losing ticket draws planned.
