Description
The York Racecourse is situated in the picturesque landscape on the outskirts of York in Western Australia and is operated by York Racing Inc.
It is the oldest operating race track in the region and is regarded as a prominent location by the Western Australian community.
The first race held at York Racecourse was on the 21st of December 1849.
Attracting thousands of people, the York Racecourse was voted the 'Northern Racecourse of the year' by the racehorse owners association.
The race club has survived for one hundred and sixty years through wars, crop failures, depressions and development phases of Western Australia like the Gold Rush to Coolgardie and Kalgoorlie.
In 2009 the York Racecourse was upgraded and re-grassed.
