Thoroughbred Racing in Australia
Horse racing is huge business in Australia. Each year there is literally billions and billions of dollars turned over in wagering, making horse racing Australia’s number one sport for punters by a long way. Unlike sports, racing is held every day over a 12 month period which means there is always plenty of action for punters to take advantage of.
Having a punt on racing has never been as easy as what it is today with all online bookmakers offering betting markets for each days racing. Every bookmaker that we promote on this website provides racing markets, plus with the emergence of such products as mobile betting and phone betting, you need never use a TAB again!

Australian Racing Carnivals
Racing in Australia works in seasons, with the climate playing a large role in the organisation of the major racing carnivals, which are limited to the metropolitan race clubs where all Group 1 races are held. The Spring and Autumn Carnivals which are held in both Melbourne and Sydney are the two seasonal carnivals, with the Melbourne Spring Carnival one of the most popular racing carnivals on the planet featuring races such as the Melbourne Cup, Caulfield Cup and Cox Plate, among many others.
These carnivals include classic races for two and three year olds, weight for age events and handicaps, with all the Group 1 events taking place in these carnivals. Adelaide also has its carnival in Autumn, while Perth have their carnival over Summer during the holiday season and Tasmania having a short carnival in January. Brisbane traditionally has high summer rainfall, meaning their carnival is held in Winter and late Autumn.
