TAB Australian Cup Day is a pivotal day on the racing calendar and a fitting finale to the Flemington Racing Spectacular. 

The $3 million Group 1 TAB Australian Cup (2000m) counts many of the greats of the Australian turf on its honour roll – legends such as Dulcify, Bonecrusher, Octagonal, Lonhro, and Makybe Diva. Cascadian provided James Cummings with a maiden win in the feature last year.

The undercard is packed with action, including the $500,000 Listed Lexus Roy Higgins (2600m) and the first golden ticket for the winner into the 2024 Lexus Melbourne Cup. 

Experience the vibrancy, food and entertainment on offer in the Fareground Resort including a spectacular Easter celebration for this Easter Saturday meeting. Bring the kids along for lots of fun entertainment, a special appearance from the Easter Bunny, arts and crafts, and an opportunity to create some Easter keepsakes. 

The highlight of the day is the Easter Egg Hunt, with exclusive sessions available for Phar Lap Club and Junior Members to hunt down those chocolate eggs.
