Does Horse Racing go clockwise or counter clockwise in Australia?
Melbourne (where they race left-handed, or counter-clockwise)
Why does some states race clock-wise and other states race counter-clockwise? I was once told that it may go back to the goldrush when Americans came here. Americans run their horses in the opposite direction to the English and some states stayed with the English way and some like Victoria where there were a lot of American miners adopted the American way. Not sure if it is true or not but at least it seems plausible.
Where can one find the length of the Stretch Runs for Major Horse Racing Tracks in the US?
It's listed in the past performances for each track in any given edition of the Daily Racing Form, as well as at the Form's website. Most tracks have websites that have this information as well.
