A Guide to Catterick Race Course
Overview
Racing has been held at Catterick since 1783 and it holds both Flat and National Hunt meetings, including the North Yorkshire Grand National every January. The course surrounds are a mixture of old and new features, including the framework of the old stand that is dated from 1906. Racing is available at Catterick all year round.
It’s a left handed track set in a “reverse letter P” shape and has a gravel subsoil that means that the going is nearly always Good.
The course is just over 1 mile long and features a heavily undulating raceway and sharp turns, making it a difficult racecourse for a big horse on the gallop.
There are 8 fences over the 9 furlong track length, made up of a combination of plain fences and open ditches.
Bullet Points
- Track length of 9 furlongs
