Mount Gambier Racecourse
Mount Gambier races are held at the Allan Scott Glenburnie Racecourse which is 440 km south east of Adelaide. The Mount Gambier Racing Club holds around 15 meetings a year and is a full time training centre.
The Mount Gambier track had a $3.3 million redevelopment in 2018 which had problems because the grass wasn’t growing well enough. This meant many meetings including the Mount Gambier Gold Cup weren’t run
