It was when riding out from Windsor Castle in 1711 that Queen Anne first saw the land that had potential for horse racing and the inaugural event – Her Majesty’s Plate – was held that same year. Since then, the patronage of thirteen monarchs spanning over 300 years has helped write Ascot into the history books as one of the world’s best-loved racecourses.
Throughout the years many a memory has been made at the racecourse through the legends that grace the track and the people that attend. We invite you to join us as a Member and be part of the story for 2023 and beyond.
