One of the country's most valuable racing trophies had its annual outing yesterday. The Clare Memorial Gold Cup, presented to the winner of the feature race at the Central Otago Racing Club Omakau races, resides in Central Stories Museum in Alexandra for 364 days a year. Club president Alister Eckhoff said the cup was solid Central Otago gold but he preferred not to reveal how much it was worth. "For security reasons, we'd rather not say, but it's believed to be one of the most valuable racing trophies in the country." Past president Garry McDonnell said the trophy was made in 1930 with 200 worth of gold.
