Ladbrokes Cannon Park

About this course

Country · Turf · 1800m circumference · 320m straight · clockwise

Cannon Park is the Cairns course, in the far north tropics, and it is triangular — the turns fall at odd points rather than evenly, which makes tempo here harder to read than on a plain oval. Chutes feed several starts, and the calendar works around the wet season the way every sport in that part of the country does.

It is a country Turf track run clockwise in QLD. Fields have averaged 8.7 runners over the 170 races in our records, with 950 metres the trip it programs most often. S.C.Massingham has 25 wins from 157 runners here, and Satisfied Mugs has won 3 of 3 starts.
