Ever wondered what happens behind the scenes before race day?

This Saturday, we’re opening the doors to something a little special 👀

Join us for a Makeit Syndicate Kennel Visit, where you’ll get up close with the dogs, see where they’re trained, and experience the build-up to race day.

Then it’s over to the track for an afternoon of racing, food, and a great atmosphere.

Whether you're already part of the syndicate or just curious, you’re invited.
