The Racing

We provide a designated signposted area on the main Stand, close to the Parade Ring, to allow Owners and Trainers the best possible viewing position during Racing. Following each race, our dedicated Owners and Trainers Liaison ensures that every win is most definitely one to be celebrated and remembered.

Connections and guests are invited, along with representatives of the Race Sponsor, to a private area to toast their winner with Champagne and Canapes, and to relive the victory, via USB Flash Drive. A copy of the Flash Drive, along with a framed photograph of the moment of victory, are also presented to our winning Owners as a lasting memory.
