Downpatrick Racecourse, located one mile from the town of Downpatrick in County Down, is one of the two horse racing courses in Northern Ireland, the other being Down Royal. The first race meeting at Downpatrick was held in 1685. Although Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, horse racing is run on an All Ireland basis, so Downpatrick falls under the aegis of Horse Racing Ireland rather than the British Horseracing Authority.

The course, like many of Ireland's racecourses, stages both Flat and National Hunt racing. The feature race at the course is the Ulster National Handicap 'Chase run over a distance of 3 miles 4 furlongs.
