About Redcar Racecourse
Redcar Racecourse is a prominent flat racing venue located in the seaside town of Redcar in North Yorkshire, England. Known as a “Garden Racecourse,” it is celebrated for its unique atmosphere and its specialized layout, which features a narrow, left-handed oval track of approximately 1 mile and 6 furlongs. One of its most distinctive features is the specialized “Straight Mile,” which allows for mile-long races on a perfectly flat and straight run, making it a fair test for galloping horses and a favorite among punters and jockeys alike.
The course hosts roughly 18 days of racing between April and November, featuring several highlights in the British flat racing calendar. The premier events include the Two-Year-Old Trophy, a high-value listed race run in October, and the Zetland Gold Cup, a historic handicap that takes place in late May or early June. With its proximity to the coast and family-friendly facilities, Redcar offers a blend of competitive sporting action and a traditional day out at the seaside.
