Greyville Racecourse
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Greyville Racecourse is a Thoroughbred race track in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The 2800 metre pear-shaped track consists of several gradient features: it is run uphill from the 2400 metre mark to the 1800 metre mark, after which it slopes gently downward for approximately the next 800 metres then uphill again into the nearly flat 500 metre homestretch.
The track's infield holds the Royal Durban Golf Club's Championship golf course.
Greyville Racecourse is host to the prestigious Durban July Handicap and in August, the Greyville Gold Cup, both Group One races that annually draw the best horses from around the country.
