Horseracing track info question?

Question

can anyone tell me where i can find out which way the track goes (as in left or right). ive looked everywhere on the racingpost website and its the one thing i cant find.

Answer 1

Go to website sportinglife.com click on to racing then left hand side click on courses you will find all you need to know. Good luck and enjoy your racing

Answer 2

I think most thoroughbred tracks in north america, and some tracks in australia and south africa, run left to right when approaching the wire or finish line.  All the  rest of the tracks run right to left when approaching the wire or finish line.  lol :)

Answer 3

log on to the racing page and in the top right there is an invitation to search space. Type in the course you want to view, change to "course" in the drop down menu and then when the course comes up as a result of the search click it. Just done it for Epsom and the first piece of info it gives in that it is a left hand track.

Answer 4

Counterclockwise in North America.  Clockwise most other places.  Watch some video or the racing channel and you'll see.

Answer 5

that depends, what country and what state, your talking about,  some states or countries go clockwise others go anticlockwise, in victoria and south aus (in australia) they race anticlockwise, hong kong races that way too, in new south wales and queensland they race clockwise!

so if you give more info about the location of racing your talking about im sure some one will answer you!

Answer 6

go to your very local bookmaker to look at the index of course's of u.k. they will tell you if it is clockwise or anti-clockwise course(old style) new style will be L/R from Grandstand?
