Newton Abbot
Summary (for full review click link below)
Close to the town centre, the racecourse is a jumping only track, left handed (anti-clockwise) and 1 mile 1 furlong round, it is flat throughout.
Racing is generally of a moderate standard. All the meetings take place in the summer months attracting a large number of holiday makers.
Admission:
The course operates a dual enclosure policy, Paddock (£16) or Course (£10)
Location:
The racecourse is located close to the town centre making access difficult, especially when leaving during the rush hour, the congestion isn’t helped by the presence of a large supermarket opposite the entrance to the course. It is close to the end of the M5 (leave at J31) and follow the A308 … local signposts will guide you. From Plymouth take the A38 , the A383 and A381 then follow the signposts.
Ease of public transport access: Good (Rail to Newton Abbot then 3/4 mile walk)
Suitability for the first time racegoer: good
