A once great raceday... ‘Glamping’ at the races: taking in on-track action great cure for Christmas excess By John Lewis Parker Hood, 3, of Ashburton, and Honey the dog enjoy some time in the sun together at the Boxing Day Races at Wingatui yesterday. PHOTOS: GERARD O’BRIEN Christmas dinner leftovers, a bit of sunshine and some horse racing — what better way to recover from a festive hangover? Zara Hood came all the way from Ashburton with her family to spend the Christmas break with her extended family in Mosgiel. But rather than just stay at her parents’ house, they all decided to go "glamping" in a holiday bus in the Wingatui Raceway carpark, so they could all go to the Boxing Day Races and still enjoy all the comforts of home. Some of the 600 racegoers who travelled to Wingatui yesterday. "There could be worse ways to recover from Christmas Day," she said. "I didn’t have a hangover — I learned that lesson a long time ago — but there may be one or two people in our family nursing a sore head today. "And I suspect a few more hangovers tomorrow." Joe Gordon, of Mosgiel, and Steph Davids, of Christchurch, work out the form of the horses for the next race. She said the on-track action was a great way to take people’s minds off their bloated bellies and aching heads. In between grazing on Christmas leftovers, she had been ducking back and forth to place bets on the horses. "I’ve learnt a lot off my husband about horse racing," she said. "His parents actually had a few racehorses that they’ve done pretty well with up in Ashburton. Enjoying the action are (from left) Luka Mitchell, 9, cousin Hazelle Verburg, 8, Scott Verburg and Julie McKenzie, all of Mosgiel. "I haven’t had any wins yet but if I do, it will probably go towards a nice midyear holiday. "Anything to contribute to that would be great," she said. The Hood family were among about 600 people who revelled in the action of the last racing event of the year at Wingatui. -

'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard Ewing (Knicks Go), perfect in two starts but unraced since taking out the GII Saratoga Special Stakes Aug. 2, arrived on the Oaklawn Park backstretch Monday, Dec. 22 after being based in Central Florida with trainer Mark Casse. According to Caden Arthur, who oversees Casse's Oaklawn string, the $37,000 Keeneland September buyback turned $585,000 OBS April breezer is scheduled to work in Hot Springs Dec. 28 in advance of his return to action, which could come in a sprint allowance in January, Arthur said. “Going to do a half-mile seven days out, just to get over the surface a little and see how he does,” Arthur said Friday morning. “[Casse] said he's been training great. He looks great.” Racing in partnership by D. J. Stable, West Point Thoroughbreds and Kenneth Freirich, Ewing galloped away from his rivals to graduate by a dozen lengths on Saratoga debut July 5, earning 'Rising Star' status. Sent off at odds of 17-10 while attempting to negotiate the hike into stakes company last time, the gray made all the running and went on to account for fellow 'Rising Star' Obliteration (Violence) by a length. Ewing would have been well-backed for the GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity at Keeneland Oct. 4, but returned from a workout 'not at 100%' and missed that contest as well as the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile.
