Clonmel Racecourse

An undulating track without too many flat sections. At Clonmel, you descend sharply into the straight and climb stiffly to the winning post. It can get very testing in the winter and quick in the summer on this right-handed track. It’s a small racecourse, only a mile and a quarter round, and not an ideal venue for keen horses over two miles because it descends straight away from the two-mile start and free horses can run too keen. It can also be hard to make up ground here.
