Epsom Downs Racecourse
About This Tour
Epsom Downs has been synonymous with British horse racing for over two centuries, its rolling course set on the North Downs in Surrey. It's home to the Derby, the flat race that gave its name to the term used the world over — the Kentucky Derby among them — and remains a genuine day out for anyone with an interest in the sport or its history.
On a race day, the atmosphere is the main event; outside race meetings, it's a quieter but still striking piece of English sporting landscape.
