National Racehorse Week

National Racehorse Week is a nationwide annual celebration of the racehorse and a chance to see first-hand the love, care and attention that goes into looking after them.

In an experience like no other, racing training yards up and down the country, including training centres such as Epsom, Malton and Newmarket will be opening their doors from 12th to 19th September to showcase the fantastic lives that these magnificent animals lead.

National Racehorse Week was born out of an idea in 2019 by trainer Richard Phillips. His vision was to create a single event that the entire country could get behind to celebrate the animals who power racing and provide entertainment for millions, whilst also providing the public and policymakers with insight into the dedicated care that they receive.

Since then, National Racehorse Week has gathered momentum and support from across the racing industry. We cannot wait for you to take part in this one-off experience like no other.

ITV Racing Presenter and National Racehorse Week Champion
“I have always been a massive fan of racehorses and this week is very much about connecting people and families to the horses and giving them a chance to meet these equine stars. This is a unique opportunity to see the horses at home relaxing in their favourite places.”
