Welcome to Knutsford Races Point-to-Point
Welcome to the Knutsford Races website. Organised by the North West Point to Point Club, Knutsford Races is a steeplechasing race meeting that is a great family day out in Cheshire with a huge range of activities including:
- Trade stands
- Amusements & Funfair
- Licensed bar & food
- Bouncy castle
- Bookmakers
Point to Point steeplechasing takes place in the United Kingdom from November to June each year. It is an amateur sport that is the stepping stone for many with aspirations to be leading jump jockeys and trainers under British Horseracing Authority (BHA) rules. Many of the leading jump jockeys and national hunt trainers developed their skills and techniques in the Point to Point horse racing arena.
Point to Point steeplechase horse racing is an attractive sport to so many people because it combines a family day out in our beautiful countryside on land that is often private and closed to the public with the thrills and spills of steeplechasing over 18 fences and 3 miles.
Because it is such an appealing occasion it lends itself to corporate hospitality and corporate sponsorship at a fraction of the cost of an event if held at a leading racecourse.
Knutsford Races prides itself as being the premier event for corporate hospitality with corporate and business advertising opportunities. Come Point to Point steeplechasing in Cheshire to understand the thrills of the event.
The 2010 meeting takes place at Tabley Hall, Knutsford, Cheshire on Sunday 16th May. First race is at 2pm, and there are seven point to point steeplechases to be held.
The up and coming sport of Pony Racing for children under 16 years will be featured in 2010. Two races will be held, starting at 1pm.
