They do at their Pukekohe venue. Licensing laws and the cost of security/compliance killed the boot party. If you will NEVER go back to Ellerslie then I wouldn't class you as a racing enthusiast. Have you been there since the upgrades? A wide range of options are available for the public and like most businesses the market differentiate their racedays. That is exactly what their sell out days are doing. Is there any evidence of that actually happening? Regardless Ellerslie have at least two family oriented days during the season. For example The Summer at the Races Day on 31 January. https://www.aucklandracing.co.nz/racedays/summer-raceday/ General Admission is Free and you can take a picnic. -
They also do not cater for what you could call your 'average' racing enthusiast, or those just looking for a 'country style' day at the races. Long gone are the wonderful days of picnics, boot parties and limited BYO, when the infield had thousands of such people. I would class myself as racing enthusiast but will never go back to Ellerslie. Word gets around, when a venue has some momentum going and it attracts people as the place to be. Ellerslie has unfortunately lost that, and with it many other associated flow on affects. An enjoyable picnic style day at the races will arouse the interest of a certain percentage in going again and potentially becoming involved. -

Five different tracks produced our fastest maidens this week, and the list includes nothing but winners – no runners-up. 5. CREED'S VISION, TAM, 2/14-2nd, 6 furlongs (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-89 (g, 4, by Jimmy Creed–Moon Vision, by Pollard's Vision) O-West Point Thoroughbreds, Michael P. Lyden and CJ Stables. B-Country Life Farm and Moon Vision Broodmare (Md). T-Arnaud Delacour. J-Charlie Marquez. West Point could have another solid Maryland-bred on its hands. Jaxon Traveler was recently retired after a remarkable run of sprint stakes wins every year from age 2 to 7, and now Creed's Vision has seemingly turned his career around at Tampa. His back-to-back Beyers of 84 and now 89 are 20 points higher than what he recorded in five starts as a 2- and 3-year-old at Laurel. He's modestly-bred–the first foal to race from a dam who squeezed $234k out of 44 starts–but he's a gelding, so who cares? 4. SEA VISTA, AQU, 2/12-1st, 6 1/2 furlongs (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-90 (c, 4, by Street Sense–Sara Louise, by Malibu Moon) O/B- Godolphin (Ky). T-Brad Cox. J-Manny Franco Given her fine Godolphin pedigree, Sea Vista had been an underachiever. Her full sister Sara Street placed in three stakes including a strong half-length 2nd in the Gazelle Stakes (Gr. II), and stakes-winning half-brother Nash ran fast races, as well. But in her sixth start, she got over the hump with a determined odds-on victory for a career-high Beyer. Three-time GSW Sara Louise has had difficulties getting into foal lately, but was bred in 2026 to Speaker's Corner. 3. PUBLISHER, OP, 2/15-2nd, 1 1/16 miles (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-90 (c, 4, by American Pharoah–Indian Pride, by Proud Citizen) O-Gus King and Estate of Brereton Jones. B-Brereton Jones (Ky). T-Steve Asmussen. J-Erik Asmussen. Yes, this is the same Publisher who was 2nd in the Arkansas Derby last year to earn a starting spot in the Kentucky Derby. Yes, he was still a maiden after a dozen starts, including back-to-back odds-on losses against maiden company. But at 3-to-5 Sunday, this time, the $600,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga graduate he overcame brief traffic issues to deliver in a big way. Asmussen has no peers at spotting horses like this in the right stakes races around the country, so you'll probably be encountering his name the rest of the year. 2. TROUBLE CALLING, FG, 2/14-2nd, 6 furlongs (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-91 (c, 3, by Dialed In–Into Trouble, by Into Mischief) O/B- Donamire Farm (Ky). T-Greg Foley. J-Luis Saez Trouble Calling proved his recent sharply improved Beyer–which previously earned him a matching No. 2 ranking on Five Fastest Maidens–was no fluke. He couldn't quite deal with debuter Knock It Off that day, but Saturday at Fair Grounds he sailed home by 6 1/4 lengths in a sprint Beyer only two points slower than Paladin earned in the Risen Star later on the card. Donamire dam Into Trouble won the Arlington-Washington Lassie and has also produced top turf sprinters Troubleshooting (Gr. I winner) and Big Trouble. 1. THE LAST STRAW, SA, 2/15-2nd, 6 furlongs (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-93 (c, 4, by Into Mischief-Bast, by Uncle Mo) O/B-Spendthrift Farm (Ky). T-Richard Mandella. J-Marco Demuro. The proverbial racing lightbulb went on in his fourth lifetime start, as he showed signs of living up to his illustrious Spendthrift pedigree. Into Mischief….enough said. Bast is a familiar name as well–a three-time Gr. I winner who was third in the 2019 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies. Her racing career ended prematurely after taking the Gr. II Santa Ynez in January of her 3-year-old season, and Spendthrift bought her at that year's Keeneland November for $4.2 million from Baoma Corp. owners Charles and Susan Cho. The Last Straw is Bast's second foal to race.
