The Betfred Derby Festival
Known as the greatest flat race in the world, The Betfred Derby. This is the one that sired all the others, the crown jewel of racing. One chance for three-year-olds to make history. 245 years, 245 different winners, this is where future champions are made.
Ladies Day, is a day like no other. It’s best dressed, summer chic, a Derby staple. Dress to impress and soak up spectacular racing, including The Betfred Oaks, one of Britain’s five classic races.
The feature race of day one, the Group 1 Betfred Oaks, is a fillies-only Classic run over the same course and distance as the Coronation Cup and Derby. Alongside the Betfred 1000 Guineas run at Newmarket and the Betfred St Leger in York, these three races make up the Fillies' Triple Crown.
