South Australian Tattersalls Club

Around this time the club moved its activities to John "Glenorchy" McDonald's Theatre Royal Hotel on Hindley Street, before returning to the Globe in May 1884.

In 1894 the club moved to a leased building[3] on the north side of Grenfell Street and west of Gawler Place.

[6] The club conducted its own race meetings, initially at the Adelaide Racing Club's grounds Victoria Park on the East Parklands, the first being held on 5 October 1889 as a fund-raiser for three members of the committee successfully sued by Seth Ferry, who had been "posted" (i.e. suspended), for malpractice.

[7] D. Dunlevie was secretary for this meeting; the chief event was Tattersalls Cup, with prize money £90, and won by C. G. McMahon's Resolution.

The next fixture was on 15 March 1890; the first meeting to be conducted by James Moorhouse as secretary, other officials included William Blackler, S. J. Jacobs, W. K. Simms, and Dr. Cawley.

The club has been responsible for a number of benefactions; one of the earliest being a donation of £221 to the widow of James Breen, a steeplechase jockey, who was killed in the hunting field on 12 July 1879.

Lewis Cohen, a prominent member of Tattersall's Club, was voted to the mayoral chair in 1909 despite fierce opposition from the Churches, who decried his open support for horse racing.
