Description

The guided tour on race day lasts an hour and a half and takes place on Sunday mornings, Saturday afternoons or Thursday evenings, depending on the season. It starts an hour and a half before the start of the first race at the main gate of the racecourse and ends after the first race. This fee also includes admission to the races. During this tour, we teach participants how to get the most out of a day at the races: how to read the race programme, recognise the best jockeys and horses, bet on the winner with practical tips, and learn about the different types of bets. We also visit the paddock to see the horses up close and accompany visitors until the end of the first race, helping those who want to bet for the first time. After the guided tour, attendees can enjoy the various leisure options (food, children's activities, music, etc.) offered by the racecourse until closing time. *This tour is not a children's activity and is recommended for children aged 7 and above. *During this tour, it is not possible to access the stables. Please visit our website to see the horses in the stables.
