Bath Course Guide and Statistics
The course at Bath
Bath is a left-handed oval of about a mile and a half on Lansdown Hill, the highest Flat course in Britain. The home straight has a pronounced bend and a long run-in, and the ground often dries quickly in summer.
Betting at Bath
The run-in suits horses that stay well, while horses drawn low can benefit around the turn. Fast ground is common in summer, so horses that prefer quick ground often do well. Fields are often of modest quality, so recent course form is a useful guide.
