Course: It is a large track with a circuit of around two miles with plenty of undulations. During the winter months the conditions can get very testing, very much placing the emphasis on stamina for our tips.

Feature Race: The Haldon Gold Cup is a Grade 2 Chase over two miles and a furlong. It takes place in late October or early November every year and became a Limited Handicap in 1996. There is a great role of honour for the race with the spoils going to the likes of Viking Flagship, Best Mate and Azertyuiop. In 2005 the race was marred by the death of the exceptional three-time Cheltenham Gold Cup winner, Best Mate.
