Hey guys, I am planning on flying over sunday morning for this, and leaving to come home sunday night.

Just looking at google maps and the sandown racecourse is over an hours drive from Tullamarine? By my calculations that is gonna cost an arm and a leg in a cab round trip...does anyone know if there is any public transport there at all?

Any tips on getting there? Are there many card dealers there also?

Cheers in advance lads!
 
Sandown usually has quite a few card dealer, plenty of NBA and heaps of AFL. It's an hour's car trip and you can catch an airport bus to a close stop to sandown which is much cheaper.

Yep airport bus then to train station to springvale station and taxi to sandown race court probably is the better opinion.

its well worth it, and sometimes they have door prizes...

I live not far, and was able to pick up alot of nice stuff last year...

Prices get low... and even lower at end of the day... start saving!!!

I doubt taxi from airport to flinders is the best thing!

if you are looking at it from money standpoint:

- Taxi from airport to city around $30-$50?
- Train around $5
- Taxi back from city to airport $30-$50

If you are not concerned about the amount of time it takes to get there, then the airport to city shuttle bus ($26 return), then taking the train to sandown.

Otherwise as mentioned maybe a hire car is a good option, smallest car you can hire for around $55? then the petrol and tolls ($12 for day pass)
