If you’ve never experienced the thrill of the chase, then you’ve clearly never been to the races. Meets held throughout the country offer exciting and fun days out that are just waiting to be enjoyed. Here are 10 reasons why the races are worthwhile visiting.

1/ There is tremendous excitement during the actual races, as the horse you’re backing gallops towards the finishing post – especially if it arrives there first.

2/ But regardless of whether you win or lose, there’s great fun to be had in placing bets whether you’ve studies the form guides or chosen a horse at random.

3/ Hobnobbing and celebrity spotting are popular racecourse pastimes, as the rich and fabulous frequent the nation’s best courses.

4/ There’s also a chance you might see royalty at the races, as many members of the royal family like the fun days out that can be had.

5/ The races are also perfect for family days out, especially as many courses offer excellent deals and discounts for children.

6/ It’s also the ideal solution for hen and stag parties that are looking for a day with a difference. If you prefer style and glamour over comedy veils and L plates, this is the way to go.

7/ Glamour is one of the big draws for women to come to the races and with a host of special ladies day meets being held at racecourses, there’s no better time to experience some luxury.

8/ If you’re in the throes of wooing a potential new customer or client, a day of hospitality at a race meet could help tip the scales in your favour.

9/ Not only that, but the fantastic corporate hospitality events that are held are great for boosting existing client relationships too.

10/ Alternatively, if you’re looking to do something nice for your employees, a day at a racecourse could be a great way for colleagues to bond and feel well-looked after.

So, if you’re looking for fun days out, why not consider the races? Perfect for a family day out, parties and corporate hospitality, there’s no better time to book tickets for a meet.
