Doncaster Betfred St Leger Day is back
… and you’re invited to experience all the excitement, prestige and festival-feels at one of the best and most highly-anticipated events in Doncaster.
Taking place over four-days, the famous Doncaster Betfred St Leger festival features the final Classic of the revered British Flat racing season - the Group 1 St Leger Stakes. Saturday’s Betfred St Leger Day is one of the must-attend UK horse racing fixtures of the year.
What To Expect
Along with witnessing history-in-the-making when the runners and rider enter the stalls to compete in the world’s oldest Classic Flat horse racing fixture, expect to experience a social occasion and atmosphere like nothing else.
This is THE pinnacle of Doncaster events to attend in 2024. The City flocks to experience all the drama and showmanship you’d expect from an event of this calibre and Doncaster’s streets are lined with flags and a festival-feel throughout the four-day Betfred St Leger Festival.
But it’s not only the proud Yorkie’s that won’t want to miss any of the action – the eyes of the world will be on Doncaster Racecourse for this epic moment to the British Flat horse racing season.
The Most Prestigious Live Horse Racing Bringing the four-day Betfred St Leger festival to a dramatic climax, the Group 1 Betfred St Leger Stakes attracts some of the leading trainers and horses from across the country.
Boasting a glittering roll of honour, which is littered with some of the most acclaimed horses in history, the race is the final leg of the esteemed British ‘Triple Crown’. Comprising of three British Classic races – the Newmarket 2000 Guineas, Epsom Derby and, finally, the Betfred St Leger, winning all three Group 1 horse racing fixtures is considered the greatest achievement in Thoroughbred horse racing and was last achieved by Nijinsky in 1970.
Alongside the Betfred St Leger Stakes, the day also features top-class horse races including the Champagne Stakes and the fast and furious, ultra-competitive sprint - the Portland Handicap.Tickets
