Are you attending Cup Day 2019?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The New Zealand Trotting Cup – contested at Addington Raceway on Tuesday – is the most prestigious and richest harness racing event in the country. More than 20,000 punters will swarm the race course, with some lucky to spot a single horse, for a day synonymous with fashion, betting and booze.

Are you there? Use the hashtag #nzcup19 on Twitter or Instgram or send in photos to reporters@press.co.nz to show off your Cup Day outfits.
