More news
Located southwest of Adelaide's CBD, Morphettville Racecourse is the headquarters of metropolitan racing in South Australia, with an extensive year-round program conducted across both the Morphettville main course and Morphettville Parks circuit.
The annual calendar reaches its peak during the Adelaide autumn carnival, when the main course hosts four Group 1 races across three major Saturdays. The Robert Sangster Stakes and Australasian Oaks share the April 24 program, followed by the South Australian Derby on May 1 and The Goodwood on May 8, while the historic Group 2 Adelaide Cup is staged on the March long weekend.
Black-type racing extends well beyond the Group 1 carnival, with major races including the Behemoth Stakes, Lord Reims Stakes, R N Irwin Stakes, Auraria Stakes, Leon Macdonald Stakes, H C Nitschke Stakes, South Australian Sires' Produce Stakes and a lengthy program of Listed events scheduled across the two circuits in 2026/27.
Morphettville Parks forms an important part of the overall racing program and is clearly designated in the race-date calendar below, allowing punters to distinguish between meetings staged on the Parks circuit and those conducted on the main Morphettville course.
