Ascot Racecourse

Before the race take a closer look at the horses before you place your bet. Horses enter the Parade Ring approximately 15 minutes before their race. Keep an ear out for the bell, which signifies that all the jockeys have been weighed out and are about to mount their horses and ride out to the track. 

For the racing itself, get close to the action by watching from the rails. This gets you as close as possible to the horses as they race so you can view from close range the atmosphere as the horses thunder past the post. 

For a more refined experience head to one of the course’s three main viewing enclosures. All offer great viewing opportunities to cheer on a winner. Here you can enjoy a range of dining options and refreshments.
