Eagle Farm Racecourse is a heritage-listed horse racing venue in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is located at the northern end of Racecourse Road in the suburb of Ascot, 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) from the Brisbane central business district.

The turf track is 28 metres (92 ft) wide, with a circumference of 2,027 metres (6,650 ft) and a home straight of 434 metres (1,424 ft). Races are run in a clockwise direction.

Doomben Racecourse is located nearby in the same suburb.

History

The Eagle Farm Racecourse was established in 1863 and it is now the premier racecourse in Brisbane.[1]

In 1889–1890, the architecture partnership Hunter and Corrie and architect John H. Buckeridge jointly designed the grandstands, known as the Paddock Stands. They also designed stables and sheds.[2]

In 1941 the racecourse was taken over by the military authorities to house thousands of American troops during the Pacific War. It was then known as U.S. Camp Ascot.[3]
