A day at the races can be a great experience. A day at the races, as a Racehorse Owner can elevate it to an amazing experience!
Race Day
Today is the day.
All the updates you have received over the previous months have led to this day.
Start the day with a drink in the Owners and Trainers (O & T) bar. Catch up with your fellow racehorse owners as you enjoy your complimentary lunch, over looking the track. Soak up the atmosphere as you mingle with other owners and trainers, all preparing for their horses run.
30 mins to post time, you head to the parade ring, to admire your horse and meet your jockey and trainer for the pre race briefing.

Post time! You watch your horse, with your heart in your mouth, screaming them home from the designated O & T viewing balcony or stand.
First past the post? You get to meet your champ back in the winners enclosure, for a celebratory pat, a photo call, post race interviews and the trophy presentation. Finally, when all the "winners work" is done you will be invited into the Winners Suite, for champagne and nibbles, while you watch the all important replays of your win!
Full disclosure.
Not all races end in a win for owners.
The overall day is basically the same. Minus the feelings of euphoria.
But there's always next time....
