(Rowley
Mile Course) - There is a straight course of ten furlongs with
slight undulations as far as 'The Bushes', about two furlongs
from the finish. From that point it is downhill for a furlong
to 'The Dip', the final furlong being uphill. The Cesarewitch
course starts on the Beacon Course, which turns right into the
straight. The ten furlong straight is wide, galloping track
ideal for long-striding horses.
(July
Course) - All races up to a mile inclusive are run on the straight
Bunbury Mile, which has a steadily increasing downhill gradient
after two furlongs, the final furlong being uphill. Races further
than a mile start on the Cesarewitch course and turn right into
the straight mile. Like the Rowley Mile Course, this is a wide
galloping track.
