Flemington 10/1/2026
Track – Good 4
Rail – Out 6M (previously out 3M)
We are back at headquarters this Saturday for the first time in 2026, it promises to be a great day’s racing, with the highlight being the time-honoured Standish Handicap run down the famous Flemington straight.
For the trivia buffs, it was Captain Frederick Standish, the Victorian Police Commissioner and VRC committeeman of the day, who came up with the idea of the Melbourne Cup back in the early 1860’s. A very interesting man to say the least, there is a movie somewhere in him and his exploits, well worth a deep dive into his character.
