Rosebery Racecourse was also operated by the Sydney Turf Club. Rosebery predominantly held pony races until the 1940s, and it became a training ground for the military during World War II. Once the war ended, it was used again by the Sydney Turf Club for the training of horses, though did not hold any more races. In 1961, the land was sold by the Turf Club to property developers, was subsequently demolished, and a housing complex was constructed on the former site.
