The unique suburban Moonee Valley racecourse is located 6m north west of the Melbourne CBD at Moonee Ponds and is the home of the Moonee Valley Racing Club.
Moonee Valley racecourse was established in 1883 by William Sam Cox, who purchased the land from John F Feehan. These two gentlemen had two of Moonee Valley’s most famous races – the WS Cox Plate and JF Feehan Stakes - named in their honour although the race name after Feehan has since changed.
William Samuel Cox became the first secretary of the Moonee Valley Racing Club and was recognised as the founder of the club in 1922 when the Moonee Valley Racing Club inaugurated Australasia's most famous weight-for-age race, the WS Cox Plate....
