Apart from being home to dozens of stables, stud farms and miles of gallops, Newmarket has two racecourses. The Rowley mile course stages both the 1000 & 2000 Guineas at the start of the season as well as plenty of important late season races, including the quality-stuffed Champions' Day in October.
During high summer the focus moves no more than a couple of miles down the road to the July course, which hosts the course's popular three-day July Meeting. Whilst the July Course has a rather informal, summery feel which is underlined by its sell-out Friday evening meetings, the Rowley Mile course feels more like its more serious older brother.
