TOWNSVILLE

Circumference 1680m
Straight 310m

Cluden Park is a grass track in far north Queensland built on a swamp so doesn't handle a lot of rain. Very short runs to the first turn at every starting point meaning inside barriers are a definite advantage, especially at the 1200m & 1600m starts. Short straight makes the track advantageous for on pace runners, however there is always plenty of pace in races with horses attempting to get across from wide barriers, so run on horses can win under certain circumstances.
