Wincanton Racecourse is gearing up for a thrilling few months of top-class National Hunt action, packed with style, charity and festive racing.
This year’s iconic Badger Beer Chase promises not just exhilarating racing, but also a celebration of style. Racegoers can compete for our Style Awards, with categories including Best Dressed and Best Dressed Couple. Prizes are truly spectacular, featuring a Boodles necklace worth £3,000, luxury vouchers from Fairfax & Favor, Hobbs and more.
Following the Badger Beer Chase, we’ll host Discover Racing Raceday on Thursday 20th November, a quieter November fixture perfect for learning more about the sport. If you’ve never been before it’s a great way to start – and why not take a look at editor Laura’s tips from her trip to the races. This day will also feature a charity race for the Keagan Kirkby Perpetual Trophy, rescheduled from the unfortunate abandonment of our Horatio’s Garden season opener. Supporters can donate to the riders via their JustGiving page, helping raise funds for this fantastic cause.
We then move into the festive season with PricedUp Military Raceday on Thursday 4th December. This special fixture will include a military riders’ race before the main action, bringing a unique and patriotic twist to Wincanton’s December racing calendar.
With top-class racing, style, and charitable events, Wincanton Racecourse continues to offer something for everyone this autumn and beyond.
