“Remarkable Racecourses” is a stunningly curated collection of extraordinary racecourses from all five continents, immortalized through the lenses of the world’s most renowned racing photographers. This collection showcases the world’s most visually striking racecourses in all their glory. High-quality photographs, paired with engaging and informative text, shed light on what sets each racecourse apart – be it the oldest, longest, shortest, southernmost, northernmost, most visually appealing, or simply the most extraordinary.

Among the 70+ racecourses featured, you’ll find Laytown in Ireland (the only race conducted on a beach under Turf Club rules), St. Moritz in Switzerland (where the race takes place on a frozen lake), Pukekohe Park in New Zealand (strategically located in the middle of a motor racing circuit), Cartmel in Cumbria (where spectators enjoy the action right from the course’s center), and Epsom Downs in Surrey (a left-handed, open-ended, horseshoe-shaped course).
