The Redbank Racecourse is typical of racecourses created throughout the central goldfields region where horse racing developed into an extremely popular sport.
In 1873, a large New Years Day race meeting was reported at Redbank and it was noted that these races had for some time been a regular annual occurrence.
Races were still being held here in the early 1920's but had lapsed by the 1930's
In October 1994 there was a revival of racing at the Redbank Racecourse when the local community banned together to stage a Bush Racing Carnival. Over 700 people passed through the gates in this 2 day event ( I remember attending these as a kid)
Although it has not been used for many years some bulidings still stand.
The building closest to where the Cache is hidden was origially the Officials Building. The to the immediate left was the race callers box which has recently and sadly fallen down. Further to the left with the Redbank Races sign still hung from the front was the five star dining and beverage outlet.
All this land is now Privatly managed and you can not access it for a closer look around. Be sure to bring your own pen and re-hide the Cache as you find it.
Happy Hunting!
