Newcastle Races | Racecourse Guide, Help & Tips

Newcastle racecourse at Gosforth Park has been open since 1882 and their biggest meeting is the Northumberland Plate, held annually in June. Newcastle hosts both Flat and jumps racing, with the Fighting Fifth Hurdle and Eider Chase being two of its other notable races. The Fighting Fifth is the first leg of a series called ‘The Road To Cheltenham’, which concludes with the Champion Hurdle at the Festival. In 2013, it was announced that owners Arena Racing planned to change the Flat turf course into an all-weather circuit whilst retaining the turf National Hunt course. The new tapeta track was completed in early-2016 and the Northumberland Plate was held on the all-weather for the first time that year.
