York (Australia) Racing Track

York Racecourse is well known for producing fast-paced racing, with the track consistently prepared to deliver good or fast surface ratings. Located about 100km east of Perth’s CBD, the venue has a long history, having staged its first race in 1843, although at an earlier location.

The circuit measures 1,661m in circumference and features two starting chutes set among classic surroundings of eucalyptus trees. Once runners straighten for home, they accelerate quickly toward the finish, charging past the historic grandstand that has stood proudly at the course since the 1920s.
