Sale Turf Club - Horse Racing & Functions Venue

Can you guess the year? 🏇📸

We’re heading back through the Sale Turf Club archives for this Flashback Friday. Take a close look at the race-day fashion, the crowd and the track, then see if these clues help:

🎵 Eminem and Rihanna’s “Love the Way You Lie” topped Australia’s ARIA end-of-year singles chart.
🇦🇺 Julia Gillard became Australia’s first woman Prime Minister.
🏉 Collingwood and St Kilda played out a drawn AFL Grand Final before returning for a replay.

Think you know the year - no cheating! Drop your guess in the comments before checking anyone else’s answer.

8 weeks to go - spring starts trackside 🌸

After a long winter, it is time to get something in the calendar that feels fun, social and easy.

The Ladbrokes Sale Cup brings together everything we love about spring racing - country racing, live entertainment, Fashions on the Field and a relaxed atmosphere at Gippsland’s premier race track.

Start planning the outfit, message the group and lock in your tickets!

This is Our Cup, and it is the perfect way to step back into the season.

This is our Cup 🏆

Flashback Friday takes us back to 2005, when professional photography wasn’t really a thing and anyone with a decent camera was considered to know what they were doing.

Looking back, we’re questioning their commitment to the cause because our archives are very slim pickings! Still, we found a few gems that deserve another moment in the spotlight.

Who do you recognise?
