Acknowledging the local residents, businesses and organisations that make up the fabric of the local Flemington community.

VRC Community Race Day acknowledged the local residents, businesses and organisations that make up the fabric of the local Flemington community.

The nine-race card on VRC Community Race Day featured heats of the Flemington Winter Series, including Heat 5 of the Banjo Patterson Series which last year saw Grand Promenade continue on the Road to the Lexus Melbourne Cup.

Saturday 4 June 2022
