Australia has a rich history in horse racing and the racecourses around the country have each developed a character and history all of their own. This history is most evident during the Spring Racing Carnival when the horse racing industry comes alive with the biggest and best races of the year. We take a closer look at each of the major Australian horse racecourses below, with coverage of race meetings found on our racing tips page as we dive into our favourite race meetings with racing tips from Flemington, Caulfield, Moonee Valley, Eagle Farm or Rosehill.
