Bendigo has the standalone meeting on Saturday.
So Bendigo Golden Mile Day, this is a day they've really turned into their own.
They've held the standalone metro status for 14 or 15 years now and an excellent card.
It's the only meeting across Victoria or the metro meeting for the afternoon.
Golden Mile Day, an excellent card where we see a couple of races worth a quarter of a million dollars.
And the community have really gotten behind it each and every year.
Quality fields, excellent racing, and plenty to do on course as well.
And there's a nice community touch to it as well, where they're going to be raising money for the Corvette for Cancer Raffle.
So the Bendigo Jockey Club are partnering with the Bendigo Health Foundation to raise funds and awareness supporting regional cancer patients.
Head along, support $100 a ticket to go in the draw to win the wonderful Chevrolet Corvette on course.
But an excellent day.
The goat, Ollie, he's going to be on course mixing it with the punters as well.
So plenty happening at Bendigo this Saturday.
The picnic grand final.
So this is a wonderful initiative from Racing Victoria where $25,000 is up for grabs.
And participants on the picnic circuit, of course, which are the lifeblood of the racing industry, they get their chance to run on the professional tracks at Pakenham.
And Friday night sees all the picnic cup winners from this season come together for a grand final effectively.
