Newbury Racecourse

Newbury Racecourse hosts both Flat and National Hunt racing throughout the year on two tracks.

Newbury’s Flat Track

Newbury’s course is left-handed and oval in shape, measuring a distance of 1 mile and 7 furlongs around.

The track is mostly flat but can be quite testing when wet. It has a wide and long home straight which suits races between 5-7 furlongs.

Newbury’s Jumps Track

The jumps course is again mostly flat and has a water-jump situated in front of the grandstand. There is a tight turn leading around to the finishing line and the fences are known to be rather stiff.
