Ayr Racecourse Guide: A True Test of Speed, Stamina and Strategy on Turf
Flat Racing:
Ayr’s flat track is a spacious, left-handed oval, stretching approximately a mile and a half in length. It features a lengthy four-furlong home straight and a gently descending bend leading into it, often giving front-runners a tactical edge as they swing into the final stretch. The straight course is notably broad, accommodating fields of up to 25 runners in sprint contests, which frequently leads to the field splitting into multiple groups during large-runner affairs. What makes Ayr stand out is how dramatically its nature can shift depending on the ground — on heavy going, it turns into one of the most stamina-sapping challenges anywhere in the UK.
National Hunt Racing:
Ayr’s jumps course offers a left-turning circuit that spans around a mile and a half and includes a total of nine fences per lap. The track is known for its smooth, sweeping bends and a consistent downhill gradient towards the final bend, which then gives way to a steady incline in the approach to the winning post. The finishing stretch includes a 210-yard run-in after the last obstacle, providing horses with a fair opportunity to rally on the flat if they’ve saved something for the end.
