Taree racetrack dimensions
Taree Racecourse is a tight-turning circuit and has a circumference of 1,530m and a home straight of 350m. It’s a course that most pundits believe favours those gallopers ridden to hold a position on speed.
The Taree track is known for resisting wet conditions and hold together nicely despite damaging weather, but that is always shifting depending on deterioration throughout any given race card.
The race track has multiple chute positions, with the 1000m, 1400m, 1600m and 2000m races all starting from a chute.
Major races held at Taree
Although there are more than 20 meetings held at Taree throughout the season, being a country circuit means a lack of feature racing. The feature day on the calendar comes in November for Taree Cup (2000m) Day, with $100,000 up for grabs, giving locals a wonderful opportunity to support participants of horse racing across country NSW.
