The flat track is a 10-furlong right-handed undulating circuit which has a stiff uphill finish for the final 2 and a half furlongs, all flat races are run over distances between 10 furlongs and two miles and half a furlong so no sprint races over 5 or 6 furlongs etc up to a mile and the runners will encounter at least 3 right-hand bends with no races over a straight trip.

The national hunt racing is run on the same 10-furlong circuit as the flat racing, so the characteristics are the same with 6 hurdles to be jumped per circuit over race distances ranging from two to three miles and the chasers have to negotiate seven fences (1 open ditch) over race distances between two miles one furlong up to three miles.
