The Belmont racecourse is the winter racecourse of Perth horse racing. It is one of the best wet weather tracks in Australia because of its top-notch drainage systems. Because of which, horse races during the winter months always push through despite the bad weather.

The Belmont horse racing track has a circumference of 1699 metres and a home straight of 333 metres. It is an oval-shaped track that offers a good run from the first turn to give an equal chance to all race horses. Races that are staged in this course run counter-clockwise.
