Redcar

Summary (for full review click link below)

Redcar stages flat racing only where the main races are the Zetland Gold Cup and the Two-Year-Old Trophy.

 

 

 

 

 

Course Characteristics:

Redcar is a tight oval of 1 mile 5 furlongs with an extended straight for races of up to a mile in length. It is a left handed (anti-clockwise) course and it is perfectly level throughout.

Despite the somewhat tight bends Redcar strongly favours the galloping sort.

Draw advantage: On the straight course those drawn high have an advantage, especially when the stalls are on the stands side.

 

Draw Advantage: None

Redcar now operates a single main enclosure (£12 - £15) and the centre course enclosure (£4 - £5)

Location:

Redcar is east of Middlesbrough, the racecourse is situated about ½ mile from the town centre and is signposted locally.

Ease of public transport access: Good (Rail to Redcar Central from Darlington then 10 minute walk)
