Plans for Permanent Racecourse at ACT Jockey Club
At the annual ACT Jockey Club meeting chairman F S Bennet outlined a push to move club buildings and facilities to the opposite side of the track and to consider a permanent racecourse on the Acton site. Departments may alter Bullivan's Creek and build a central car park with a new access road from Kayes Lane. The club weighs a trustee corporate body and possible lease to raise funds, while plans await room and approvals. The club reported a sound year with a £1401 surplus, gate receipts of £1704, bookmakers’ fees rising to £1820, and 241 members. Bennet was reelected chairman with a full slate of officers and seven planned meetings.
