Official website
Musselburgh Racecourse is a horse racing venue located in the Millhill area of Musselburgh, East Lothian, Scotland, UK, close to the River Esk. It is the second biggest racecourse in Scotland (the first being Ayr) and is the fourteenth biggest in the UK.[1] In 2016, Musselburgh staged 28 fixtures.[2] It was officially known as "Edinburgh Racecourse", and referred to as such in the English press, until the beginning of 1996[3][4] but was widely referred to as "Musselburgh" in Scotland long before that[5] and was widely referred to as Musselburgh in the racing pages of Scottish newspapers.[6]
The course offers both flat racing and National Hunt meetings (though it only introduced jumping in 1987) and is 2 km long. In the middle of the course is a nine-hole golf course, Musselburgh Links, dating from at least 1672. The Royal Musselburgh Golf Club was founded there in 1774.
