Racing takes place mainly from December through to August.
The prestige races are the Gold Cup in April, Eclipse Stakes in June and the Tingle Creek Chase in December. All these races, and the Flat race the Eclipse, attract quality fields of horses.
The jumps course is made up of a large oval that is flattened on one side. The Flat course runs in a straight like through the middle of this course.
