A Day At The Races

‘A Day at the Races’ – fortunately not with the Marx brothers. One of the best ways to entertain your clients at the races is by taking a box where you can look after them exclusively. An excellent view of the racing can be combined with a seated lunch, tea and drinks throughout the day, provided and staffed by the racecourse catering company. The suggested venues for the top races are Ascot, Newmarket, Cheltenham and Goodwood.

Bespoke Race Days

We can offer a bespoke day at the races to take account of the particular day that you wish to offer your friends or clients. What makes us so unique is that we can provide not just the more usual boxes but days centered around a grand picnic in one of the historic car parks where one can only attend at the invitation of a member.

Goodwood Racecourse

No. 3 Car Park at Goodwood – How can drinking Champagne in a car park be special? When it overlooks the course and is located next to the finishing line. It feels like a garden party.

Ascot Racecourse

No. 1 Car Park at Royal Ascot – A wonderful way to enjoy a grand picnic lunch and afternoon tea centred around one of the world’s greatest race meetings.

We can arrange for you and your guests to watch the Cartier Queens Cup cup at Windsor Park or top polo at Cowdray Park in Sussex.

Client Testomonial

I acted as tour leader on a racing trip to South Africa. We put together a varied itinerary to combine trips to the races, stud farms and training centres. The hospitality shown to our group throughout was outstanding. During the 18 day tour we traveled to the Cape, Transvaal and Natal. I am delighted to say that there were no hiccups, as I was not an experienced guide! This was on account of the highly organized Robert Hutchinson who had meticulously planned the operation from the London headquarters of Sporting Tours. Our clients universally stated what a wonderful and interesting trip it had been.
