The Practical Gallery
Learn about the horse and the jockey in our Practical Gallery. Tack up a model horse and find out about the daily routine in a trainer's yard.
Next dress up in silks before weighing out and riding a horse simulator- as used by jockeys for winter practice. Then pose in front of the winner's blanket!
The gallery is staffed by retired trainers and jockeys who can really make the world of racing come alive.
Groups must pre-book the practical Gallery.
