The New South Wales village of Tabulum, on the Bruxner Highway, is located some 800 kilometres from Sydney. Despite having a population of less than 500 residents it organises a very successful Spring Racing Carnival each year, capturing people’s interest by staging it around the time of the Melbourne Cup. The racecourse is situated just 1 kilometre to the south of the village, with racing administered by the Tabulam Jockey Club, the principal race being the Tabulam Cup over 2200 metres. |

In the early part of the 20th century the Tabulam Race Club organised what it termed ‘grass-fed- races. The main races on the card were the Sandilands Stakes over 6 furlongs, the President’s Gift over a mile and the Publican’s Gift over 7 furlongs. Results from the 1913 and 1915 meetings are shown below, after which the meeting ceased. Saturday 10th April 1915 |
|
The meeting was revived after more than a decade when the 1926 meeting staged the Tabulam Cup over 7 furlongs. It was won by Mareeva (4/1) ridden by M Monahan, beating King Una and Beseige. |

| Course today | The meeting continues to enjoy tremendous success. |
