History.
SEN Track was born out of SEN+, which commenced broadcasting in Melbourne on 13 August 2018. The station was a simulcast of the 1116 SEN service, opting out for coverage of sports including the NFL, VFL, NBL and Super Rugby. The station also broadcast coverage of the 2019 Spring Racing Carnival.
On 3 July 2019, Pacific Star Network announced its subsidiary Crocmedia had acquired 23 broadcasting licences from Gumnut Nominees, the licensee of Italian language radio network Rete Italia, at the value of .
On 27 March 2020, Crocmedia announced it would launch SEN Track, a radio station covering horse, thoroughbred and greyhound racing. At the time, racing codes were the only Australian sports operating during the COVID-19 pandemic. SEN Track launched the following day in Melbourne, replacing SEN+, and on the former Rete Italia frequencies in Perth and Wollongong. In April, the network expanded to Gosford, Ingham and Atherton, with Crocmedia announcing it would replace Vision Christian Radio in Brisbane and Rete Italia on the Gold Coast from September.
In June 2020, Crocmedia announced it would sell the licence of its Melbourne station to ACE Radio, and seek to acquire a further three narrowcast licences from Gumnut Nominees, covering Melbourne, Sydney and Darwin.
