The Young Turf Club will again conduct their autumn race meeting at the famous Toompang racecourse on Saturday afternoon May 19th.
In a move to the new date back in 2010, the club has been able to attract more starters than in previous years, due mainly to the running of bigger meetings and the picnic race circuit being run in the area at this time of year. The day also coincides with the Brisbane racing carnival, this is also popular with on course patrons who whish to invest on the rich Doomben Cup and supporting races on the same day.
The track has been maintained throughout the year and following a rather wet summer the surface is in wonderful condition. The six race programme will include the $7,500 Empire Hotel Young Cup over 1600 meters with the five supporting races carrying $4,500 in prizemoney.
John North from Bowness Stud has kindly donated a service to his resident sire Bon Hoffa for the Benchmark 55 handicap, (Fillies & Mares) over 1000 meters.
Nominations for the meeting close on Monday 14th May at 11:00am with acceptances due at 9:00am Thursday 17th May.
The club will also conduct a pre race night dinner at the Empire Hotel on Friday night 18th May with the special guest being award winning equine artist Kristin Hardiman. Ms. Hardiman was the 2011 winner of the Inglis Equine Art prize with her painting titled Mother and Daughter.
This painting was described as the standout from the worldwide field of selected finalists.
The dinner will be held in the “Vista Room” of the Empire Hotel with the two course dinner commencing at 7:00pm Tickets are $40 available from Gilberts Bookstore in Young or by contacting Mr. Keith Carmody 0263 823183.
