Wentworth Park’s legendary greyhound track is closing early—by year’s end—ending 94 years of racing history to make way for community green spaces and sports fields. A surprise lease deal fast-tracks the site’s transformation, with bulldozers set to clear the grandstand after the final Million Dollar Chase. While some see it as a death knell for greyhound racing in NSW, others hail it as a win for animal welfare and public space. The site will host 7,000 new homes and 20 sports fields, part of a major urban renewal near transit hubs. The state’s $10 million bailout aims to help the industry relocate to regional tracks and upgrade facilities nationwide.
