BAIRNSDALE RACECOURSE | ||
Situated on Racecourse Road in Bairnsdale in the State of Victoria, the Bairnsdale Racecourse can boast a history dating back to 1862. Its inaugural meeting was held in February 1862 and it has enjoyed strong local support ever since. | ||
By 1964 it had grown even stronger when the Bairnsdale
Racing Club merged with local Lindenow and together they launched a newly positioned
racecourse. The new course opened in November 1976 and Premier Rupert Hamer was there to
officiate.
|
||
Also holding one meeting a year at the racecourse is Bairnsdale Hibernian Racing Club. | ||
One of its feature races is the Lindenow Cup held around
Easter.
