MORE INFO COMING SOON FOR Lockhart Picnic Races 2017
LOCKHART PICNIC RACES 2016 - CANCELLED DUE TO WET WEATHER
The stewards from the Southern District Racing Association (SDRA) have inspected the Lockhart racecourse and due to the waterlogged state of the racetrack the picnic race meeting scheduled for Friday 7th October will not proceed.
Therefore, unfortunately the committee wishes to advise that the 2016 Lockhart Picnic Races have been cancelled. The committee apologises for any inconvenience caused, and wishes to advise that anybody who has pre purchased guest tickets will be provided with a full refund. We thank everyone who has contributed to the organisation of this year's event, particularly our sponsors. Whilst the committee is disappointed that we are unable to run our event this year, we hope that 2017 brings more favourable conditions and we can once again race at Lockhart.
Lockhart Picnic Races will be held on Friday 7th October 2016 - CANCELLED
Gates open at 12pm with the first race at 1.30pm. Come along and enjoy a picnic lunch trackside before the racing commences.
