Number of Positions & Locations

  • Rails – 29
  • Tatts (Queen Anne Enclosure) – 90

    • There are 77 betting positions in the betting ring using the standard ‘Horseshoe’ format.

    • The remaining 13 positions will be located on the Trackside Lawn (same positions as 2025) - one group of 6, one group of 5 and a final pair 

The Club 26 Lawn has been further extended this year to ensure that there is no over-crowding and we are hopeful of attracting up to 10,000 guests (currently over 7,000 tickets sold) in this area.  The Lawns will only be open to Club 26 and Invades (students) guests.  They will be identified by wearing a wristband.

All equipment can be dropped off in advance of the raceday as normal but all cars have to be off course by 9.00am.  Please email betting@ascot.com in advance that you wish to be added to the list that our security team needs to enable you to enter the racecourse.

We will need

  • Trading Name

Badge Box 

Will be open from 8.30am onwards for the collection of all bookmaker badges and wristbands.

Please help our security team by wearing the wristband and showing it to the security team on the entrance.  It has been noticed that many staff try to access the course without wearing a wristband.  This holds up all of the queue, please ask your teams to wear their wristbands as they access the course.  This will help them to ensure that you access the course as quickly as possible.  There will be security checks so please allow a few minutes extra to get on to the course.

Forecast Attendance

  • 30,500
