Described as a small country town with a 'lively spirit' it is no wonder that the first racecourse in Donald is rumored to have been down the main the street of the town - what a tradition.

Racing at Donald has changed somewhat from those days and the racecourse is now located just on the outskirts of town. The track itself boasts a long wide straight and long runs to the first turn from all starting positions, giving every horse a chance to win. The facilities and surrounds at Donald are among the best in the region and the beautifully kept gardens make it one of the prettiest too.
