Shaped like an elongated horseshoe, the present Derby Course of 1½ miles rises approximately 150 feet over the 1st half mile; one third of a mile on the top of the hill is practically level and as the course turns to the left the going is downhill to Tattenham Corner, from which point there is a gradual fall to the final sharp rise before the winning post approximately 50 feet above the Starting Gate. Draw Advantage: high numbers in 5 Furlong and 6 furlong events. Low numbers from 7 Furlong to 1¼ miles.
