Event on Hold
As you are aware the Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrision has announced that all non essential gatherings of more than 500 people have been banned due to the worldwide coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The 2020 Kulin Bush Races are scheduled in just over 6 months so while we will not be making any decision to cancel our event at this stage, we will continue to monitor the situation across Australia. Ultimately, our decision will be in the hands of the government and recomendations from health authorities. The health of our community and patrons is of paramount importance.
We will continue to tentatively plan for the 2020 Kulin Bush Races event however we will not be announcing a ticket release date or opening horse nominations until we are certain that our weekend will go ahead.
We encourage everyone to keep up to date with the latest information from the government and our thoughts are with those affected by COVID-19.
Stay safe!

Fun fact.... the wooden 25 was hand created by our new Chairman Tom Murphy. It took Tom about 16 hours to make this over the course of a few weeks hidden away in his back shed after work. 🔨 💡
Our little treasure is a winner 👍
