Frequently Asked Questions

For safety reasons, only assistance dogs are allowed into racecourse enclosures on racedays. Assistance dogs are dogs that have been trained in order to provide assistance to people who are deaf, blind or disabled people or those with certain medical conditions. 

If possible please bring along your assistance dog’s ID book or ensure that your dog is wearing a recognisable jacket or harness.  

Dogs must not be left in cars while owners come racing. 

Yes, lots! Here are the indoor and outdoor options:

• Benches near the bandstand and on two sides of the Parade Ring in the Paddock Enclosure (outdoor).

• Benches under the trees at the Paddock and Club Enclosure entrances (outdoor).

• Chairs and tables behind the Parade Ring (outdoor). 

• Chairs and tables in all bars and the Fountains Cafe (indoor).

• Chairs and tables opposite the Theakston’s Bar (Outdoor).

• Benches, chairs and tables throughout the Club and Paddock grassed area by the race track

• Seating in the Club Stand

• Concrete seating in the Paddock Stand

 Picnics are welcome in both the Paddock and Course Enclosures. In the Course Enclosure only we offer racegoers the opportunity to bring their own alcoholic drinks to accompany their picnics. Please note there is a maximum allowance of four cans per person, or the equivalent, and strictly no glass bottles. BBQ’s are not permitted.

Tickets are generally available for purchase on the day for all Enclosures, unless they have sold out in advance. If this is the case, it will be communicated on the website and via social media before the event. Please note that on the day prices are higher than purchasing tickets in advance online or over the phone, so we would always advise to book in advance if possible. 

Yes. We do not lock the doors after the first race and will continue to welcome racegoers until around the third or fourth race. 

If you need to nip out to the carpark to find friends or get something from the car, you will need to go to the Paddock Enclosure entrance and receive a pass to leave and re-enter.
