YEA RACECOURSE | ||
Based on the Racecourse Road in Yea in Victoria is the Year Racecourse which has witnessed racing since the early 1900's. The original track was about 5 miles from the town. | ||
The races were transferred to Kerr's Land until 1903. By
1904 the inaugural meeting on its current site was held, although future meetings were
badly disrupted by both World Wars.
|
||
In 1930 the Club became Yea Amateur Picnic Club. | ||
President of the Yea Racing Club is Toby McLeish whose
father Oliver rode a winner at the track at the grand old age of 75.
