Category talk:Horse racing venues in the United Kingdom

Ugh. I wish I'd seen this earlier. There are no "horse racing tracks" in the United Kingdom - there are plenty of racecourses, though. Varitek 15:31, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * This name was agreed as a compromise for all countries. In the U.S. they have horse race tracks, but the category is Category:Horse racing venues in the United States.

I'd like to try and bring some order to these pages, I think there should be some regular format to the different racecourse pages.

I'd suggest something like:

Description
What type of course it is(as in level throughout, uphill straight, stuff like that), size, handedness, any unusual features such as figure-of-eight.

History
Just brief histories at first, which could be expanded later

Major Races
What should qualify here? Pattern races. Listed and above? How would that pick up major handicaps?

Other
Particualrly notable renewals of races, horses associated with the track. Maybe the section title should be Trivia.

Any suggestions/observations? Ruudboy 00:16, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
