A $1 billion development that promises to transform the Gold Coast Turf Club (GCTC) and future-proof racing at the popular Queensland holiday destination is one step closer to being shovel-ready.

The huge project, which will redevelop two hectares of land at the northern end of the turf club into residential, retail and entertainment facilities, has been on the drawing board since late last decade.
The Sunlight Lifestyle Precinct development is a joint venture between the Turf Club and Aquis, which is also a prolific owner and breeder under different entities including Tony Fung Investments.
The major development, which received council approval in August last year, is named after the 2018 Magic Millions 2YO Classic and three-time Group 1 winner Sunlight, which was co-owned by Aquis’ Fung family.
