Racing NSW is set to meet with the English company City Racing in the next couple of months to discuss having a race meeting on the Sydney Harbour Bridge as the concept becomes closer to reality in Paris.


The street racing concept – backed by Peter Phillips, the Queen’s grandson – has been in the planning for a couple of years and the Sydney Harbour Bridge has always been one of the preferred options.

The concept has global appeal and France Galop is understood to have a working date of September 16 for a race meeting on Champs-Elysees, one of the world grandest avenues.


Racing NSW has been interested in the concept as a multimillion-dollar advertisement for Sydney and racing in Australia to run in conjunction with The Everest or The Championships meetings.


The Harbour Bridge is seen as a dream location by promoters, who would like to set a worldwide circuit of races.
