Newmarket is often referred to as HQ in racing circles. It has two flat courses – the Rowley Mile and July Course. Racing on latter sits in-between two periods of action on the Rowley Mile.
Newmarket’s trademark is long and wide straight tracks, which makes for very competitive racing. An uphill run to the line can make for dramatic finishes.
