25.01.2022 Head to the Ti Tree Racecourse for the biggest race day in Cooma. Held annually, early in December, with the main race being the Sundowners Cup - named in honour of the movie The Sundowners which was filmed in and around Cooma, Adaminaby and Nimmitabel in 1959. One thousand locals were extras at the Ti Tree Racecourse when the race scene was filmed for the movie. Come and experience a great day out at the races on Saturday 7 December. 2019 will be the 27th year of the Sundowners Cup - come to the social event of the year!

16.01.2022 History The first record of an organised horse race meeting is gained from the issue to Joseph Ward, on 25th February, 1855, of a publican's booth license, for races to be held at Tea Tree Flat on 20th., 21st., and 22nd March, the license being operative from 6 a.m. till 10 p.m. Another meeting was held at the same place on 26th. and 27th. October of the same year. In June, 1856, booth licenses for races were granted to Joseph Ward and James Hain, publicans of Cooma, and Ale...xander Walker Davidson, of Reid's Flat (now Bunyan), and the two first named secured licenses for a meeting on 17th, 18th and 19th March, 1857, and another meeting on Boxing Day. Later, races were conducted on Cooma Creek, the finishing post being somewhere near where the Co-operative Mill was afterwards erected. These are the premises that, until recently, were used by Messrs. Ruddin and Co. as Freezing Works. The first authentic race programme it has been possible to discover is printed on a single sheet of paper, and is headed, "Beresford Picnic Races, 1867." It comprises six events, and a perusal of it indicates the bottom of the horses belonging to the pioneers. The Maiden Plate, The Ladies' Purse, and The Beaten Stakes, were each run over a mile and a half course; The Bachelor's Bag was two miles, with 11Ist. up; in the big race, The Picnic Cup, horses were asked to run three miles carrying w.f.a. to win a prize of IO/10/0, whilst the Hack Race was run in mile heats, also w.f.a. The name "Beresford" was probably adopted from the fact that Cooma is within the county of Beresford. On 15th August, 1871, an area of 320 acres was dedicated as a recreation reserve, and on this racing has since been conducted. The body controlling the sport has seen many ups and downs, but is now in a flourishing condition. It has had quite a number of changes of title, and in 1895 was known as the Manaro Jockey Club. In 1896 it became the Cooma Racing Club. The ground on which the meetings are held is about two miles out of town. Its appointments are good, and it has a well laid out course. The present secretary is Mr. J. C. Martin who, over thirty years back, was a vice-president of the club and a successful horse owner. Names that occur as intimately associated with racing and the Cooma Race Club are Messrs. J. H. Montague, Rolfe, Kaufline, Delaney, Eccleston, Woodcroft, Brooks, Cosgrove, and Harnett. The Club not infrequently holds meetings for the benefit of the Cooma Hospital.

13.01.2022 $110,000 GRANT The Cooma Monaro Race Club will be able to move ahead with its plan to construct two new sheds at the Ti Tree Racecourse, thanks to the NSW Gove...rnment’s Stronger Country Communities Fund. Deputy Premier and Member for Monaro John Barilaro said the almost $110,000 grant will be a massive help when the club hosts the biggest race day on the region’s calendar. The Cooma Races are always a great day, with more than 3,000 racegoers and competitors travelling hours to take part, Mr Barilaro said. The continued success is thanks to club’s dedicated committee members, who give up countless hours to ensure everything goes to plan. Putting together the day involves a lot of hard work, but I know these new sheds will help in making it a little easier. The two sheds will be used as a multi- function asset. They will house starting stalls and equipment year round, while on race day they will double as accommodation for racegoers. Cooma Monaro Race Club Inc. President, Mick Schofield, thanked the NSW Government for the investment and said it will help the committee do more for the community. The club is a non-profit organisation and we like to be able to put back into our community whenever and wherever possible, Mr Schofield said. The Cooma Races have been an important part of our local community for longer than the Melbourne Cup has been running. Find this story on the back page of this weeks Monaro Post to read more.
