The Rcaing
It doesn’t get much better than this, with over £1.5m in prize money and a top class race programme attracting some of the best horses from Europe and around the world to contest the 22 races.
Top billing goes to the two Group 1 races, Wednesday’s £200,000 Etihad Airways Falmouth Stakes and Friday’s sizzling £400,000 Darley July Cup, Europe’s premier sprint.
