Our exclusive Owners and Trainers bar is conveniently located on the first floor of the Millennium Grandstand and is fully accessible.

Enjoy a complimentary tea or coffee whilst watching the racing on screen or, take the opportunity to witness the action from the reserved viewing area overlooking the winning post just outside the bar. The bar also provides easy access to the betting ring and parade ring.

Owners and Trainers Dining

The Runners Bistro serves a complementary two-course lunch for owners with a runner on the day.

The restaurant is ideally positioned in the Courtyard and fully accessible for wheelchair users or those with reduced mobility. 

(Complimentary lunch allocation dependant on ownership however additional lunches above allocation can be purchased in the restaurant for £25pp.)

Tables are allocated upon arrival and cannot be held for the day so we kindly ask if they can be vacated once you have dined.

Lunch is served from gates opening until 4:00pm.

(Please be aware that during busy times there may be a short wait to be seated.)

Nestled under a dreamy tree canopy the pre-parade ring is ideally positioned to ensure a calm and peaceful environment before the action starts on the track.
