I just wanted to congratulation you on the new and improved facilities that you have created at Redcar.  As the racing manager for Grange Park Racing, all my syndicate members are looking for is a nice dedicated area where they can relax & enjoy a light meal & refreshments.  With your new dining area they can now do this in comfort, enjoying a choice of a hot meal, cold salad or a sandwich, and if they just want a drink they can relax in the bar area. It was also a pleasure when we had a placed horse to be invited in with the winning connections to watch the re-run witha  glass of complimentary champagne.  Well done, all racecourses should follow your example.

It goes without saying that all who work at Redcar Racecourse love horses.

All horses are given first rate care at Redcar Racecourse, from the moment they arrive at the racecourse, to going home at the end of the raceday.  We are dedicated to minimising risks and dealing quickly with any incident which may occur.  Working closely wih the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) we ensure that every conceivable opportunity has been taken to minimise injury to the horses.

HorsePWR is supported by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), Great British Racing (GBR) and the Hors Welfare Board (HWB).

Visit the HorsePWR site for more information about the excellent work that is done every single day of the year to ensure that racehorses are well cared for.
