Get ready for a thrilling night at the 2026 Tamworth Cup Calcutta!

Join us in at Diggers on Thursday 23 April from 7pm for the official Tamworth Cup Calcutta — hosted by racing personality Luke Marlow. It’s your chance to get involved in the action, bid for your favourite runner, and be part of the excitement leading into Cup Day. With cash on the line and plenty of banter, this is one night punters won’t want to miss.

How it works:

• Buy a $5 raffle ticket below.

• On the night, one ticket is drawn per horse in the Tamworth Cup field (emergencies grouped together).

• If your ticket is drawn, you “own” that horse and receive 50% of whatever it sells for at auction.

• You can bid for your horse at auction – Pay 50% of the final auction price to buy it outright.

• The Calcutta pool (from ticket sales and auctions) is split between the owners of the horses that place:

  • 🥇 1st – 60%

  • 🥈 2nd – 20%

  • 🥉 3rd – 15%

  • Last – 5%
