  • Racecourse Category Pages - January 2019
    RACECOURSE CATEGORY PAGES - JANUARY 2019 Bangor on Dee Racecourse Located in delightful Welsh countryside near Wrexham, Bangor-on-Dee Racecourse is a left-handed National Hunt course. Racing has taken place there since 1859, except during both world wars. Many leading trainers such as Paul Nicholls and Nicky Henderson send their younger thoroughbreads to Bangor as an education for bigger, more esteemed race meetings. Bath Racecourse Racing was first recorded at Bath in 1728 and there are now twenty-two meets per year, including two notable races — the Lansdown Fillies’ Stakes, which takes place in April, and the Beckford Stakes, held each October. The left-handed course is one mile, four furlongs and 25 yards long, with a half-mile run-in. Beverley Racecourse Annual race meetings first took place at Beverley Racecourse, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in the mid 18th century. There are currently 19 meetings per year, with headline races including the Hilary Needler Trophy in May and the Beverley Bullet Sprint Stakes in August. Both draw expectant crowds to the historic right-handed, one mile three furlong flat course. Brighton Racecourse The three-day Festival in August is the seasonal highlight at Brighton Racecourse, with the Brighton Mile Challenge Trophy Handicap attracting punters and keeping the bookies busy. There are currently 18 race meetings per year at the left-handed circuit which, like Epsom Downs, is unusual as it doesn’t form a full circuit. Carlisle Racecourse Carlisle Racecourse’s biggest race, The Carlisle Bell, was first contested in 1599. Taking place each June over seven furlongs and 173 yards, the name ‘Bell’ refers to bells awarded to race winners under the reign of Elizabeth I.
