Race Day Details

The Jamestown Racing Club programs a six event race card with the first event usually scheduled to start at about 1:00 pm. If visitors are travelling from Adelaide they will need to allow about three (3) hours travelling time. Gate entry is $10/head, concessions are available to card holders.

Local Weather & Track Update

The October race meeting usually benefits from good winter rain resulting  in a good cover of grass. It may not be Flemington but the racing surface at Jamestown can be generous for horses looking for good going. September rains can take the “sting out of the ground”

Patrons are welcome to bring pincic lunches on course but Government Liquour Licencing conditions do not allow any alcohol to be brought onto the racecourse site. Similarly, Licencing requirements do not allow any glass (bottles)on course except for, in designated marquees.

In addition there will be a sausage sizzle/hamburger stall and sandwiches and cool drinks available.
