WOLVERHAMPTON RACECOURSE


Wolverhampton racecourse is a strange place being situated in the middle of a housing estate. It has a hotel on site but overall is a pretty heartless place to visit in person. Even the parade ring is all weather. The course has floodlights and regularly host Saturday night fixtures.

Key Characteristics

Wolverhampton racecourse is a left handed all-weather course, and uses polytrack. The surface is quite fast and in terms of the all-weather its probably only second to Lingfield in terms of speed. The course is only a mile all the way round and its oval shape means that it is very similar in configuration to most US racetracks. Wolverhampton is tight with a short straight and like most of the all-weather tracks tends to suit horses that race handy, as its very difficult to come from a long way behind.
