The Going Report

We are committed to providing outstanding service to our owners and trainers.

The Owners and Trainers Restaurant is located along the Horsewalk close to the Richmond Enclosure. Here owners are able to enjoy a complimentary lunch for up to six people. 

The Owners & Trainers Pavilion is situated to the right of the parade ring. It is an exclusive bar offering complimentary tea and coffee throughout the day and plays host to our raceday winning connections. 

Exclusive Viewing
An Owners and Trainers exclusive seated viewing area can be found at the front of the March Grandstand just below the Duke's Box. 

Owners are entitled to one Car Park 6 Owners' label per runner. This will be sent to the registered owner by post (from Weatherbys) prior to the meeting.  For any additional car parking requirements, please email owners@goodwood.com

Disabled parking is available on a first-come, first served basis at the front of Car Park 5 next to the Richmond Enclosure entrance (please display your Blue Badge). For more information about accessibility click here.

Please can we ask that Gazebos are not erected in such a way that they block other car parking spaces. If car parking becomes too limited then we may have to ask you to take them down.

At Goodwood we embrace quintessentially British style – whether that’s high fashion or something more classic, it’s about a relaxed yet chic look. We are known for a distinctive style - linen suits, Panama hats and chic dresses are de-rigeur.

Ever since King Edward VII relaxed the dress code in the 19th century, we have enjoyed a carefree holiday feel here, unlike any other racecourse. 

Within the Richmond Enclosure:

Gentlemen are required to wear a jacket and tie. Boys aged 7-15 years are asked to wear a long sleeved collared shirt (no polo shirts).

Ladies, it's all about the garden party look. A floaty or floral dress, an elegant top and trouser/skirt combination that is suitable for England in summer. We recommend that you leave your stiletto heels at home, as the uneven ground can be tricky to walk on.

Every Owner, Partnership and Syndicate is entitled to six owners' badges with lunch per runner.  Registered syndicates may have up to twelve badges in exchange for lunch.

We ask that the syndicate manager agrees the allocation of badges under their management in advance of the meeting.  Please be reminded that it is the responsibility of the syndicate or partnership manager to inform their owners of our dress code and specific lunch arrangements made on their behalf and in advance.

Trainers with runners on the day and Jockeys with a ride will be entitled to two Owners' badges each.  Owners of horses that are entered but not declared, can be offered two Richmond Enclosure badges for that day.

Badges can only be collected from the Owners' & Trainers' desk at the entrance to the Richmond Enclosure close to Car Park 6.

Please present your PASS card or QR code confirmation from the PASS system.  We reserve the right to ask for personal ID before any badges are released.

Please pre-book all your badge requirements, by no later than 23:59 the day before via rcapass.com telephone 01933 270333, or email pass@weatherbys.co.uk

Please understand we will NOT be able to accommodate any late badge requests after this time.

Due to the high demand resulting in the frequent sell out at the Three Friday Nights, Owners and Trainers are eligible to receive four complimentary tickets only for attendees under 18 for these fixtures.
