MORE ABOUT DONCASTER RACECOURSE
History
Doncaster Racecourse, also known as Town Moore course, is considered to be one of the oldest and biggest racecourses in Britain.
The venue is owned by the largest racecourse operator in the UK, Arena Racing Company. Doncaster has been hosting horse racing events since the 16th century. In fact, during 1600, the company decided to end the racecourses due to hooliganism. However, the decision was overturned in 1614, when the corporation had to mark out a race in order to avoid failure.
St Leger Festival was first organised in 1776, when Colonel Anthony St. Leger found a race which involved five horses running. The race is still in existence today and is known as the oldest classic race in the world.
Doncaster was also used for military purposes during the First World War, so Newmarket hosted all substitute races from 1915 to 1918.
Racecourse Redevelopment
Doncaster Racecourse underwent a £34 million redevelopment project and the venue has never looked so great. In the centre of the new development racegoers can now view an exceptional five- storey grandstand. The main stand offers new luxury private suits and a wide range of facilities for food and drinks, as well as classy dining experiences.
