History


John Bennett purchased a large section of Rosehill to construct a racecourse and recreation area.[3] Construction started in 1883 and was completed in April 1885[4] for a grand total of £12,000.[5] Bennett constructed a private railway line connecting the racecourse to the main line located at Clyde[6] which opened on 17 November 1888.[7]


From 1943 Rosehill Gardens Racecourse was managed by the Sydney Turf Club[8] and remained so until 2011 when the Sydney Turf Club and Australian Jockey Club combined to become the Australian Turf Club. The Australian Turf Club are the current owners and operators of Rosehill Gardens Racecourse.[9]
