Investec Derby Festival Proves Popular Again

Ladies' Day also draws the crowds

Investec Derby Day on Saturday  saw the number of ticketed racegoers come to around 36,000, in line with the sold-out 2018 Investec Derby Day.

The Queen’s Stand, Lonsdale, and Upper Tattenham Enclosures were all sold out again on Saturday.

Tens of thousands more watched the 240th Investec Derby, the premier Classic and Britain’s richest race, from The Hill, enjoying a splendid sunny afternoon.

Friday’s Investec Ladies’ Day had an excellent attendance of just over 28,000.

This was about 2,000 more than in 2018, with The Queen’s Stand once again sold out.

The sun broke through in mid-afternoon to put the final touches to an excellent afternoon of racing featuring the fillies’ Classic, the Investec Oaks, and the G1 Investec Coronation Cup.
