It 16 race meetings a year between early October and mid-May. The track is 70% on a gravel base and 30% on a loam base (ideal in wet weather). The track is run right-handed, is oval, and quite galloping in nature. The steeplechase and hurdle courses mostly run side by side but separate on the far side, creating two different back straights. The hurdles course is set to further back, making the overall circuit slightly longer, coming in at 1m 5f and featuring six flights. On the other hand, the steeplechase course measures at 1m4f in circumference and features nine fences, with the solitary water ditch bypassed on the second circuit.

The facilities available at the place are Parade Ring, the Centre Marquee (situated between the weighing room and the Fairway cafe and opposite the grandstand, with 300 to 500 seats), the Clive Pavilion (opened by Viscount Windsor, now the Earl of Plymouth), the Plymouth Stand (the first floor houses the Plymouth Carvery Restaurant and the Plymouth Box), and the Jubilee Stand (situated above the Grandstand and Paddock Stand, with a TV screen and balcony area, and can hold 12 to 30 people).
