Cheltenham Park Racecourse

[citation needed] In November 2007, the SAJC sold the racecourse land for A$85 million for a new housing development.

[1][2] It was proposed that the proceeds of the sale be used to help fund the Victoria Park Racecourse redevelopment.

However, following the decision to abandon racing at Victoria Park, it was decided to use the money for further development at the Morphettville Racecourse.

[citation needed] On Saturday 21 February 2009 the last race meeting was held at the course before its official closure following the sale, and the area was redeveloped as part of the new suburb of St Clair.

[citation needed] Cheltenham Park Racecourse was situated north-west of the centre of the city and approximately 5 km (3.1 mi) from Port Adelaide.
