Windsor Racecourse

Windsor Racecourse, also known as Royal Windsor Racecourse, is an idyllic setting for some excellent flat racing close to the river Thames and within a stone’s throw of Windsor Castle.

The course is best known for its Monday evening racing through several weeks of the summer and these meetings attract bumper crowds.

The course is a figure-of-eight and much of the action takes place out of sight of the stands, though there is a straight course for races over five and six furlongs.

For much of the early parts of longer races, runners are constantly on the turn, which favours well-balanced, nippy types. But the long run-in at Windsor races means hold-up horses have time to gain momentum and get involved in the finish.

Windsor Races Tips

On fast ground, in races over five furlongs a high draw is beneficial. However, in longer races a low draw can be advantageous.
Richard Hannon trains plenty of winners at Windsor Racecourse but the strike rates of William Haggas and Roger Varian catch the eye. Mark Johnston does not have many runners here but his record also commands respect.
Similarly, while Oisin Murphy rides winners at Windsor races on a regular basis, James Doyle, William Buick and Silvestre de Sousa bring home more than their share of prize money.

Windsor Races Behind Closed Doors

Windsor races are currently being run behind closed doors because of the ongoing COVID-19 situation.

This is set to be reviewed and updated in line with government advice, with Royal Windsor Racecourse keen to welcome back punters as soon as it is safe to do so.

It’s still worth checking Windsor races fixtures because the decision to allow spectators in could change. If you book tickets to a Royal Windsor Racecourse event that is then moved to behind closed doors, refunds will be processed through the official course website.
