Doncaster
Racecourse is where tradition and excellence meet. The St. Leger, the world’s
oldest - and the fifth and final Classic of the British Flat-racing season -
takes pride of place every September on the famous Town Moor. Renowned for
producing racing of the highest order, Doncaster is undoubtedly one of the
finest racecourses in Europe, with facilities to match.
The return of the historic Ladbrokes St. Leger festival to its home ground marks
the high point of our racing calendar. This special event gives you the
opportunity to entertain guests in one of our festival marquees, private boxes
or restaurants.
The Racing Post Trophy in October is the final Group 1 race of the British
season; a race for top-class two-year-olds with classic aspirations. While the
Tote November Handicap effectively brings to an end the Flat season on turf.
The highlights of the Winter season over the Jumps at Doncaster are The
Christmas Meeting in December and the Great Yorkshire Steeplechase in January.

THE ST LEGER FESTIVAL
DONCASTER RACE COURSE
12 - 15 September 2007
Doncaster is the only Northern racecourse to
stage a classic race. Every September the St. Leger is celebrated with four days
of festivities and our stunning new facilities will create an even greater sense
of style and spectacle at this historical occasion.
The St. Leger was first run in 1776, making it the oldest classic in the world.
The St. Leger Festival is acclaimed as the premier sporting occasion of the
Autumn calendar, an exciting spectacle which is also an important social event -
a place to see and be seen.
Festivities in 2007 are sure to be more colourful than ever, as racegoers
celebrate the homecoming of this great event in stunning new surroundings. With
the redevelopment of the Racecourse on target we are delighted to be able to
announce the new packages and prices for the Festival meeting.
FESTIVAL MARQUEE PACKAGES
PADDOCK MARQUEES
Redesigned due to the change in
location of the Pre parade ring and saddling boxes the
Paddock marquees now run adjacent to the running rail
overlooking the racetrack with a view down the finishing
straight and on Saturday the start of the St. Leger race
itself. With a newly located big screen television and live
music the Paddock will still offer the perfect location in
which to enjoy the day’s entertainment.
WINNING POST ENCLOSURE
An unrivalled location on the Racecourse,
offering an unobstructed view down the home straight, the newly
developed Yorkshire Stand with a packed Grandstand facing you and
the noise from the crowd hitting you in waves as the horses thunder
pass to the finish, this is a fantastic position in which to
experience the thrill of the big race atmosphere.
