Naracoorte

About this course

Country · Turf · 1730m circumference · 270m straight · anticlockwise

Naracoorte sits among the Coonawarra and Padthaway wine country in the state's south-east, on a circular turning track with cambered bends and a short run home. A long curve carries the field almost all the way from the mile mark to the turn for home, which puts a real premium on the inside gates over most trips.
