Saturday - Day Three is Hennessy Gold Cup Day, featuring the jewel in the crown of Newbury's racing calendar, the prestigious Hennessy Gold Cup, now in it's 56th year. With a distance of 3 miles and 2 furlongs, a display of courage and horsemanship is required to be first past the post. There will also be a a host of other top class races which attract huge crowds every year. Guaranteed to feature racing's biggest stars, the day is one of the 'don't miss' events of the winter social and sporting scene.
