The club’s day of days, the Gunbower Gold Cup, is on the way this October, scheduled for Saturday, October 3.
Already known to locals and attendees as on one of the best days in country racing, that tag became official as last year’s meet earned a nomination for Country Racing Victoria Community Club Event of the Year.
Seven confirmed races, headlined by the eponymous Gold Cup, will be held on the day at the Gunbower Race Course, combined with a smorgasbord of food, drink and entertainment.
Fashions on the field will be present as always as racegoers look to show off their best trackside fits.
“Enjoy a relaxed community atmosphere with the excitement of a city race day, set against the stunning backdrop of the majestic Gunbower Creek,” the club said.
Locals and travellers alike are set to flock to the course as the club tries to beat the more than 3000 that packed the track in 2025.
“I just love that we have that reputation that anyone is welcome here, and doesn't matter where you come from or what you do, you are going to have an absolute ball at the Gunbower Racing Club,” club president Vicki McGillivray said of last year’s cup.
