Getting Home
Departing Flemington Racecourse: 4:07 PM - 6:27 PM Stopping Melbourne Showgrounds, North Melbourne, or express through to Southern Cross Station.
A day of Commemoration and Reflection.
This reverent day on the calendar is dedicated to honouring the sacrifices and bravery of Australian and New Zealand soldiers, as well as our equine heroes who had served in wars and conflicts.
ANZAC Day Race Day was headlined by the Listed VRC St Leger (2800m), won by American Wolf, a historic race older than the Melbourne Cup and featuring champions like Phar Lap and Tulloch.
We came together to pay tribute to the ANZAC spirit and remembered those who had given so much for our nations.

Racing Salutes ANZAC Day
Flemington will once again honour our servicemen and women with a special silk jockey colour initiative. A rider in each race will wear commemorative ANZAC Day silks as a tribute to the spirit and sacrifice of the ANZACs. We encourage all racegoers to support the RSL’s vital work by making a donation this ANZAC Day.
Mounting Yard Ceremony
A traditional ANZAC Day Ceremony will take place in the Mounting Yard at 2:55pm allowing racegoers to pay their respects to current and former service personnel. The ceremony will include the laying of the wreath, The Last Post, a minute's silence, the playing of The Rouse and performances of the Australian and New Zealand National Anthems.
Two-Up
A time-honoured tradition at Flemington, Two-Up will once again be back for ANZAC Day Race Day. Hear the historic ‘Come in spinner’ poem recited before the first spin at 12:30pm on the Flemington Front Lawn.
ANZAC Appeal Pins
Buy an ANZAC pin from the Watsonia RSL sellers located at entry points and roaming across course throughout the day to support the ANZAC Appeal. Eftpos and cash accepted.
Art and Heritage Displays – The Light Horse Brigade
Racegoers will have the opportunity to explore a captivating collection of photos and displays dedicated to the Australian Light Horse Regiment. This includes the remarkable story of Bill The Bastard, Australia's most legendary war horse, on display in The Terrace.
Display courtesy of the State Library of Victoria and Running Rabbits Military Museum.
Flemington Family Lawn
Bring the kids and head to the Flemington Family Lawn where there will be the opportunity for kids to create their own poppy artwork and write a letter to a current service man or woman. There will also be an array of lawn games, face painting and a commemorative activity centre.
TAB Saintly Place Sports Bar
Visit the TAB Saintly Place Sports Bar and enjoy the casual-style atmosphere with comfy lounges, pool tables, foosball, cold beers, and food specials. In-between races, sit back and watch the traditional ANZAC Day clash between the Pies and the Bombers!
