Cheltenham (now closed)
Caulfield
Brighton - UK
Kempton - UK (interesting All Weather track watching the races with snow on the track)


but by far and away the best I have been to was Goodwood in the UK, Glorious Goodwood festival is just brilliant and any racing fan it is must on the bucket list. Picturesque landscape, excellent facitlites and just an awesome feel about the place

Got a monster quaddie at Northam several years ago, besides the norm I have been to Towong ( country Victoria) near Corryong, Braidwood, Bungendore and Moruya.

Just missed out on going to Marble Bar races this year, was in town but went to the footy instead.

Royal Ascot (England) as a kid, although from memory the Bookies still took my bets
