This fun and friendly flat course sits in the North Yorkshire coastal town of Redcar.
Staging around 18 meetings per year, between the months of April and November, the track benefits from bumper crowds during the peak summer months due to the number of holidaymakers in the area.
Redcar’s early season highlight comes in the shape of the Zetland Gold Cup in May, whilst the valuable Two-Yea-Old Trophy of October takes centre stage during the autumn months.
