Echuca | March 13
Saddle up, the Echuca Cup’s on the way CROWDS ARE ALL SET TO RETURN FOR THE ECHUCA CUP AND IT’S SET TO BE A RIPPER THIS YEAR AT ECHUCA RACECOURSE ON MARCH 13. “It’s our biggest race day of the year, it’s a day for us that has certainly grown over the last five years,” Echuca Racing Club general manager Garry Armstrong said. Gates open at 11 am for a big day of racing with a prize pool of $100,000. “It all becomes a fantastic day out at the races for those who are into the country cups,” Mr Armstrong said. Enjoy all country racing has to offer at one of Victoria’s premier race tracks located in the heartland of Victoria’s thoroughbred country in an intimate setting, with sweeping views of the course. “We work hard to maintain what we call a country causal sort of day. We have lots of people out on the spacious lawn areas, lots of umbrellas,” Mr Armstrong said. “A bit of live music between the races, a bit going on for the kids. We try and make it a fun day for families, (and) a good racing day for the keen race-goers.” Parking is free, and there is also a free shuttle bus service running from Echuca-Moama to the races and back. The Echuca Cup looks forward to welcoming all to Echuca.
