The Tracks History
The Sale Turf Club, founded in 1842, has carved out a distinct niche in the ranks of local racing.
It has a rich history that few other country clubs can match, and the Leadership 2000 initiative has identified it as a racing centre earmarked for development well into the next century. Examples of racing stars it has produced include Sky Heights and Makybe Diva.
Few provincial racing organisations can equal Sale’s Greenwattle Racecourse’s tradition and history, which dates back almost as far as the industry.
The inaugural race at Greenwattle was a match race between two of the district’s pioneers’ horses in 1842, and the Sale Turf Club moniker was formed in 1860.

Most Famous Race Held At Sale
Sale Turf Club has established a reputation as a significant racecourse on Australia’s provincial racing circuit, thanks in part to its main race meeting, Sale Cup Day, held on the final Sunday of October.
This event, along with the $200,000 Sale Cup, consistently draws a high-quality field that is rarely seen outside of Melbourne. Many of the victors go on to win group races, introducing city racing to the rest of the country.
