Welcome to the official website for Eyton-On-Severn Point-to-Point Races. All the latest news and information regarding upcoming meetings at Eyton-On-Severn will be displayed here.
Point-to-Point racing is basically a form of steeplechase racing. Because it mostly involves amateurs it is something that even beginners can take part in. Most of the horses involved are thoroughbreds, but this isn't always the case. They have to have a certificate from a Master of Foxhounds to confirm that they've taken part in the most recent hunting season for a minimum of four days before they go Point-to-Point racing. Many jockeys' first experience of horse racing came from Point-to-Point racing, and it's a good way for aspiring jockeys to learn the basics or racing. Point-to-Point racing is also a proven starting point for horses, many of whom have made the leap from Point-to-Point to National Hunt racing with lots of success.
After two very succesfull days racing so far this year the next racing will be on May Day Bank Holiday Monday, the 3rd of May. For further details on this event please click here.
The course is currently being repaired after the last meeting and will be watered as required to ensure suitable going on the day. We will be giving all the latest details regarding the condition and going of the course on this website, look out for the details which will be published nearer to the time.
Latest Course Report: There has been half an inch of rain recorded at the course and this coupled with the watering that is being carried out and with more rain due today, the anticipated going on the day is set to be GOOD (Saturday 1st May)
