September Racing at Ascot

About

Featuring the Ladbrokes Mobile Handicap over a mile-and-a-half, which, with prize money of £150,000, is Britain’s most valuable three-year-old handicap and the Fly London Southend Airport Handicap Stakes sponsored by the Stobart Group.

Enjoy the Festival of Food and Wine as Ascot combines great racing with fantastic food.

Wine cognisors will be on hand to give expert advice on how to choose a wine to best suit your pallet, with a few to sample throughout the afternoon.

Our Festival of Food celebrates the best produce the local area has to offer with the help of the Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxford Local Food Group and the Hampshire Fare. Between races racegoers are able to race and shop, purchasing locally produced items from county suppliers. Over 30 stands will be located around the Parade Ring selling cheeses, speciality breads, cakes, ciders, real ales, pasta, preserves, flowers, game and much more.

A Shop & Drop facility will be available for customers to leave their purchases while they enjoy the racing and pick them up at the end of the day.
