Historical Context:

Doncaster is one of the oldest established locations for horse-racing in Britain. With records of race meetings being held in the 16th century, it is barely 40 feet above sea level. The entire length around the course was 1 mile 7 furlongs in 1903 and the run-in very short. With The Doncaster Gold Cup alongside the St. Leger, this course is home to two of the world’s oldest horse races.
