The All Weather Track
The Fibresand track is a left handed oval of 1 mile 2 furlongs. The long sweeping bends test both horse and jockey. It has a straight run in of 3 furlongs. Southwell is the only all weather track to have a straight race, this is for 5f sprints. Because of the sweeping bends and longer run in than the other all weather tracks there is no need for the jockey to force the pace.
The Turf Track
The turf course, used for both National Hunt and flat racing, lies within the all weather track and is 1 furlong shorter. Jump races feature seven obstacles per circuit with a 1 furlong run in.
