We are happy to be back on the Racing Road in 2022 after a hiatus of two years as a result of the Covid travel restrictions. We anticipate continuing the return to normality in 2023.
Due to other commitments we have earlier in the year, both of our 2023 trips will be in the fall.
Paris, Chantilly, and the Arc de Triomphe: we return to Paris for the first time in five years for the greatest horse race in the world. We'll also be in Chantilly to have an extensive look at France's major training center and, depending on the final racing schedule, have a racing day there and hopefully another at an atmospheric country course. We'll go racing at Saint-Cloud and conclude with the two-day Arc Weekend at Longchamp. Likely trip dates will be September 24 to October 2. (We expect demand for spaces on this trip to be brisk, so please let us know as soon as possible if you are interested in joining it.)
England and British Champions Day: The climax of the English racing season -- the five Group 1s card at Ascot -- will highlight this mid-autumn trip. We also hope to include, again subject to final fixture scheduling, racing at Goodwood and several other courses; a visit to "The Valley of the Racehorse" in Lambourn; and some special sightseeing. Probable trip dates will be October 13 to October 22, although a possible change to the racing schedule could move these dates to a week earlier.
Note that the trip lengths as described include the latest departure date from the U.S. and the earliest return date to the U.S. For European trips, one of the nights will be spent en route overseas. As always the trips are designed for easy extension, either before or after the scheduled dates, for those who wish a longer stay abroad.
We expect to have the full itinerary details posted to the website by November
