Newbury Racecourse

A top-class Flat and National Hunt track, Newbury’s left-handed, galloping course provides a true test of stamina, particularly in wet conditions. The highlights of their National Hunt season include the Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup run at the end of November and the Tote Gold Trophy, Europe’s richest handicap Hurdle, which takes place in February. On the Flat, the jewel in their crown is the Group 1 Lockinge Stakes in May. Newbury can also boast first-class facilities and a superb view of the whole track.

The history of Newbury Racecourse starts well before the actual racecourse was formed in 1904. It all started in 1805 with an annual two-day race at Enborne Heath. And though it changed locations, this became a tradition of Newbury Racecourse that lasted until 1815.

90 years after the start of the “Newbury Races”, Kingsclere trainer John Porter proposed that there be a new racecourse in Newbury. As the Jockey Club had strict regulations surrounding new racecourses, Porter’s plans were rejected several times. But, after a chance meeting with King Edward VII brought about an application with the King’s support, it was approved. The Newbury Racecourse Company was founded in April 1904 and construction on the new course began.

Newbury Racecourse is located in Newbury, Berkshire.
