The
Queensland Turf Club, operator of
Eagle Farm Racecourse, (until 2009)
was formed in 1863.
The Club was given a grant of 322
acres of land and hosted their first
race meeting at Eagle Farm in 1865.
To support its successful Brisbane
Cup meeting, the Queensland Turf Club
committee decided in 1890 to launch
a great sprint race - the Stradbroke
Handicap.
Now 126 years on in history, the AAMI
Stradbroke has grown to become Australia's
premier sprint race.
Eagle
Farm Racecourse is the largest capacity
racecourse in Queensland, hosting
no less that 40 race meetings each
season. The highlight of the racing
calendar is certainly the Queensland
Winter Carnival in June, which encompasses
the state's finest social and fashion
events and of course, the state's
most prestigious racing with feature
races including the AAMI Stradbroke,
BMW Queensland Derby, Conrad Treasury
Brisbane Cup and the T.J. Smith.
