Ipswich Races - Betting Tips & Previews
Dating back to 1848, Ipswich Racecourse is one of Queensland's oldest and most significant thoroughbred venues. The Ipswich Turf Club conducts racing at Bundamba and stages around 46 meetings each year, blending rich tradition with modern facilities following a major redevelopment completed in 2020.
The annual racing calendar is centred around the Ipswich Cup, one of Queensland's premier provincial staying races, while the Eye Liner Stakes and Gai Waterhouse Classic headline an outstanding winter carnival. Regular midweek TAB meetings ensure Ipswich remains one of the state's busiest racing venues.
