Sedgefield
Racing has been taking place at Sedgefield from around 1732, with the first recorded meetings in 1846. The course itself was part of the Sands Hall Estate, home of the Ord family and known as the Melton of the North.
In 1804 Ralph Lambton formed a club based at the Hardwicke Arms and Sedgefield became the headquarters of the Ralph Lambton Hunt, whose meetings had originally taken place at Lambton Park .
Situated in County Durham countryside, a warm and relaxing atmosphere can always be assured at 'The Friendly Racecourse', where high quality facilities provide close-to-the-action views.
Hosting 20 Jump race meetings, spanning 11 months of the year, Sedgefield Racecourse is one of Britain’s most popular racecourses. With extensive hospitality, advertising, branding and sponsorship opportunities, this is the sports venue centre that’s open all year round.
