Devonport Racecourse Tips & Latest News
All-weather racing sets Devonport apart from Tasmania's other major thoroughbred venues, with the Spreyton racecourse providing the state with its dedicated synthetic racing surface.
The Devonport Racing Club stages a compact 12-meeting program during 2026/27, with the synthetic circuit playing a particularly important role during the colder and wetter months when racing conditions can be more challenging elsewhere in Tasmania.
Feature racing builds through the second half of the year with the Golden Mile and Sheffield Cup, before the club's season reaches its traditional high point with the Devonport Cup in January.
The Devonport Cup is the signature event at Spreyton and one of the major races of the Tasmanian summer, providing an important lead-up into the state's broader summer carnival.
Whether you're looking for race dates, betting tips, form guides, fields, race previews, results or the latest horse racing news, you'll find everything you need for Devonport race meetings right here.
