Newmarket Course Guide and Statistics

The course at Newmarket

The Rowley Mile is one of Newmarket's two courses and hosts the spring and autumn meetings. Races up to a mile and a quarter are run on a wide, straight track that undulates gently before running down into the Dip about a furlong out and then climbing to the line. Longer races, such as the Cesarewitch, start on the far side of the heath and join the straight after a right-handed turn.

Betting at Newmarket

Because the course is straight and wide, fields often split into groups and the draw can favour one side for a whole meeting, so watch the early races. The rising finish after the Dip catches out horses that have only shown speed on flat or downhill tracks. Two-year-old maidens here are among the strongest in the country, and winners of them are worth following.
