Newton Abbot Map

Few experiences arouse the senses more than the sight and sound of thoroughbred racehorses in full flight. It's a spectacle that's captured the imagination for more than a hundred years at Newton Abbot which has enjoyed a fine tradition of competitive racing since 1866.

Newton Abbot is the leading summer jumping racecourse in the UK. It is therefore a showcase for the industry and aims to provide quality competitive National Hunt racing to a wide audience drawn from both the general public and from the corporate sector.

It also aims to provide an efficient and attractive setting for non-racing activities that generate income and acts as a means of promoting the site and the industry and an increasing attractive target for sponsors.

In short Newton Abbot aims to be the venue of choice for all our customers, racing and non-racing alike

Newton Abbot combines an excellent location, good access from the motorways and local airport with a genuinely beautiful setting to support this objective. It has an ambience that is extremely popular with race goers, owners and trainers. The quality of its racing product is built on its summer season.
