Retro at the Races- Summer Festival at Newbury Racecourse
An exciting day at the races dedicated to all that was great in the 1960s and 70s, with great racing including the Weatherbys Super Sprint.
‘Retro at the Races’ invites you to channel your inner Mick or Twiggy, don your 60s or 70s garments and go along for a day devoted to racing, music and a celebration of an iconic era in recent British history.
The feature race is the Weatherbys Super Sprint, a thrilling test of speed.
The Weatherbys Super Sprint is one of the major races for two year olds of the entire flat racing season. Some of the country's quickest horses will race at blistering pace over the shortest racing distance of 5 furlongs. The high class supporting races include the Group 3 Shadwell Stakes and the Listed Shadwell Beech House Stud Stakes.
