Ludlow is a real speed-orientated track. It’s very flat, right-handed and about a mile and a half round. The fences are some of the softest in the country, and many a sketchy jumper can scrape their way around there and not many other places. The hurdle track takes a slightly different course down the back straight making it less tight on the bends than the chase track where you can be racing coming out of the back straight.
