Hamilton Races

Racing has taken place in Hamilton for more than 200 years and, although this is a small track, it is just 15 minutes from Glasgow and boasts excellent facilities.

Horses often race both ways along the straight in the same race as they run away from the stands and complete a loop before returning.

Hamilton Racecourse stages entertaining flat racing all summer but its most significant race is the Glasgow Stakes, run over a mile and three furlongs in July.

Hamilton Races Tips

Hamilton Park Racecourse is a sharp, undulating track. There is a big dip three furlongs from the finish, followed by a severe climb to the winning post.
Well balanced horses with stamina are favoured at Hamilton races, especially on soft ground early in the season.
Keith Dalgleish and Richard Fahey train plenty of winners here, but Kevin Ryan has the more eye-catching strike rate.
Among jockeys, Ben Curtis has more than his fair share of success at the course.
