Great news for horseracing in Central Europe! Freudenau racecourse in Vienna is to reopen in 2017. When the north American style racing + casino project was set up at Ebreichsdorf, east of Vienna, several years ago, racing at Freudenau soon began to dry up. It had seemed to be only a matter of time before this beautiful racecourse would become a dream site for developers. However, the Ebreichsdorf gallop racing project was never a financial success and is now moribund. Only a handful of races have been run in Austria in recent years, interspersed between trotting races at Ebreichsdorf.

The race conditions for Freudenau will be published in March 2017. There will be a meeting on September 16th, 2017.
