Bratton Down, Devon

Undulating course on side of hill; very sharp turns into and out of home straight can be slippery; long uphill finish and results of many races change after last fence; the going, on old moorland turf, is often good despite late season dates.

Meetings: Dulverton West Foxhounds; Exmoor Foxhounds; Tiverton Staghounds

Going

The going at Bratton Down is currently firm. The aggrivator will be used, which we know from past experience will do a great job on the moorland turf, to provide safe going. There will be a further update from the Course Inspector on Sunday. (Updated 07/05/25)
