Nottingham Racecourse is a thoroughbred horse racing venue located in Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England.[1] It is situated at Colwick Park, close to the River Trent and about 3 km east of the city centre.

The racecourse was in operation ante 1773,[1] and is a left-handed course.[1] It staged both forms of racing until the mid-1990s, when it abandoned National Hunt racing to become a flat-only course.
