Doncaster

Doncaster Racecourse (also known as Town Moor) is a racecourse in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. It hosts two of Great Britain's 36 annual Group 1 flat races, the St Leger Stakes and the Futurity Trophy.

Racing is recorded as having taken place in Doncaster in the 16th century, although it ceased from 1600 to 1614 due to unruly crowds. With backing from the town's Corporation, racing flourished, and was elevated to national significance after the introduction of races like the Doncaster Cup and St Leger Stakes in the second half of the 18th century. Racing has continued ever since despite interruptions in wartime, with facilities having been vastly enhanced in the 2000s.

The course hosts both flat and National Hunt racing on a left-handed, flat circuit, and usually hosts over thirty racedays throughout the year. These include the St Leger Meeting, which is held over four days in September.
