Racing

The Berkshire countryside is home to some of the finest yards in British horse racing. Top trainers such as Nicky Henderson and Barry Hills have chosen Lambourn Downs as their base to produce generations of champions.

NEWBURY

Newbury Racecourse hosts some of the very best horse racing both on the flat and National Hunt. Their calendar includes the famous Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup, the Juddmonte Lockinge, Ladies Day in August and a summer season of top-class racing, including three superb evening meetings.

ASCOT

Ascot Racecourse is currently enjoying it's forth season since the £200 million refurbishment. The Royal Meeting at Ascot Racecourse which ran from Tuesday 16th - 20th June 2009 is just one of the many race days to be enjoyed at Ascot this year.

WINDSOR

The charming Thames-side course at Windsor is enormously popular with race-goers. It hosts no less than 29 meetings from April through to December, 17 of which are their famous Monday evening meetings – great, great fun. One rather unique feature of this venue is the arrival by boat from Windsor town – not to be missed!

AND FURTHER AFIELD

Cheltenham, Bath, Salisbury, Kempton Park and Goodwood are all within an easy drive.
