Britain's great racecourses
Ascot, Cheltenham, Aintree, Epsom — the four classics and beyond.
British horse racing is structured around five classics (the 2000 Guineas, 1000 Guineas, Derby, Oaks, St Leger) on flat courses, and four major National Hunt fixtures (Cheltenham Festival, Grand National, King George VI Chase, Champion Hurdle) over jumps. These are the ten venues you'd plan a year of racing around.
