History of Ascot Racecourse

Did you know?

When Queen Anne of England opened the Ascot Racecourse in 1711, she did not imagine that this geographical point of Berkshire County was about to become the quintessence of the British, that perfect combination of tradition, royalty and extravagance. And that is what has happened throughout its 306 years of history.
