The proud tradition of the Squatters Cup continues with the first Squatters Cup being presented in 1930, donated by Mr F.C. Christophersen and G. Lonsdale.

The Farmers & Graziers Squatters Cup has become an annual event. Port Augusta’s central location to farming and pastoralist regions makes it a shopping and social hub for many regional families. A day at the races is an ideal way for rural families to spend time together.

All eight races are televised on Racing.com and Sky Racing to viewing audiences in virtually every town and city across Australia with the beautiful Flinders Ranges as the backdrop. There is no other race meeting in the state that can offer coverage of such a brilliant attraction.

As the only sand-based TAB track in South Australia, Port Augusta thoroughbred racing offers patrons a unique and exciting race day experience.
