Wanganui
racecourse, New Zealand.


Wanganui has been home to the Wanganui Jockey Club since 1898 and as such
they are the oldest racing club in New Zealand still operating on the original
land. The racing surface is a sand-based 1700 metre track offering a very good
year-round racing surface, and offers excellent viewing from all levels. The
racecourse is only minutes from the city centre, with several motels are in close
proximity.
Wanganui racecourse is located on Purnell Street, 2km from the central business
district. Easily found from all main roads into Wanganui.
