WELCOME TO

Welcome to Nottingham Racecourse, where an incredible afternoon of flat racing awaits you on the turf. In light of the events that occurred in Nottingham this week, we will be holding a minute’s silence before racing at 2pm in memory of those who have tragically lost their lives

A special thank you to Racing TV and British EBF who have generously sponsored today’s sevenrace card. We also express our special appreciation to Fairfax Saddles for their continuous support of our Leading Trainers and Jockey championships. Defending champion jockey Rob Hornby is well clear in the Fairfax Jockey Championships after a double win at Nottingham Racecourse just over a week ago.

Today, we have two feature races on the card First up the Racing TV Fillies’ Handicap Stakes at 3.10pm, the seventh qualifier for the Jockey Club Grassroots Mile Series. These Grassroots series have been created to offer increased prize money to horses that typically compete just below the Group or Listed level. To secure a spot in the finals at Nottingham in September, horses must have participated in at least one qualifying race throughout the season A total of 20 qualifying races will be hosted at Jockey Club Racecourses during this series, ensuring ample opportunities for all contenders The Class Three Racing TV Handicap Stakes is at 3.45pm with an excellent field of runners.

In addition to the exhilarating races this afternoon, we invite you to enjoy Winning Plaice and Ann’s Tearoom within our relaxed and welcoming atmosphere For those seeking a truly indulgent experience, consider upgrading to Sherwoods Restaurant for an afternoon of hospitality while enjoying a breath-taking view of the racecourse.
