WEATHER

Dress for the weather! This is an outdoor event so check the local weather forecast so you can prepare accordingly for your day at the races. Due to recent levels of rain, the Silver Ring Lawn in particular is wet underfoot and wellies may be required.

A range of bars and food outlets are available serving tasty food and refreshing drinks. Various concessions will have gluten free, vegetarian and vegan food options available across the racecourse. 

SECURITY

We take security and safety very seriously. There will be a strong security presence and you will be subject to a bag search on arrival.

Please be patient and limit the bags you bring. We ask all visitors not to leave bags unattended and to report anything suspicious to a member of staff.

Finally, have fun! Bring a smile, enjoy the races, celebrate the King’s coronation in ‘Royal’ style and hopefully pick some winners!
