Northam Racecourse Tips & Betting Advice
More than 160 years of racing history underpins Northam Racecourse, which has been part of the Avon Valley sporting landscape since the first local races were staged in 1863. Today, the venue remains one of Western Australia's premier provincial racing centres.
The calendar is concentrated between May and November, with the majority of fixtures held during the week alongside several larger weekend racedays. Northam's two major racing features are the Group 3 Northam Stakes and Listed Northam Cup, while WA Day is another established part of the club's annual program.
The Northam Stakes is particularly significant as the state's only regional Group race, while the Northam Cup provides the spring highlight before the club's season draws to a close.
