Forbury Park Raceway

The site was used for both galloping and saddle trotting events until 1898, at which time the Dunedin Jockey Club moved to a new venue at Wingatui, near Mosgiel.

[1] Forbury Park was the first club in the South Island to hold a night trotting fixture with the inaugural such meeting on Thursday, 26 January 1961.

In February 2021 the Forbury Park Trotting Club announced plans to sell the racetrack and move to a new location outside the urban area.

[5] In July 2021 it was reported that some of the sale proceeds would be given to the Forbury Park Trotting Club to continue harness racing at other venues such as the grass thoroughbred track at Wingatui and Wyndham in Southland.

HRNZ chief executive Gary Woodham stated: "If that happens then that money will be used for the benefit of harness racing in the region, south of the Waitaki River".
