Queen Anne liked nothing better than to hunt in Windsor Forest and it was in the early 18th century that she discovered for herself this open heathland which she thought an ideal place, not five miles from Windsor, for "horses to gallop at full stretch". She founded the famous race-course there in 1711. In July 2004, the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead granted planning permission for the redevelopment of Ascot Racecourse, which enabled the main scheme to commence in October 2004 as planned . Ascot Racecourse is delighted to announce that Royal Ascot returned to its Berkshire home in 2006.

Tradition has it that in the fourteenth century soldiers from Ludlow Castle came here to match their horses. There is certainly a record of racing in 1729.The course retains not only its Edwardian character but also a strong club atmosphere. Though now a National Hunt course, jumping did not start until the mid-nineteenth century and even today the hurdles track is for a large part separate and follows for 1 mile of the original flat course.

Uttoxeter was turned into an award winning racecourse, with a reputation for customer service and innovation.In that first year Uttoxeter Racecourse hosted only five meetings. Now, Uttoxeter Racecourse holds 24 race meetings spread evenly through the year. Whether it is National Hunt Racing in winter, or glorious summer jumping, you are sure to find a fixture that suits you.
