🌧️ Thank Goodness for the Rain: a Summer of Racing at Musselburgh! 🏇

Before we look ahead to the final few Flat fixtures of 2026, Musselburgh’s Office Manager Jill has been looking back at a summer packed with big winners, brilliant racing and plenty of sunshine. ☀️

From the debut of the Class 1 £80,000 Goliath Cup and a dramatic Sky Bet Sunday Series double-header, to the Edinburgh Cup, Ladies Day and our action-packed August fixtures, it’s been quite a summer at our track.

There have been some fantastic performances along the way – and with just four Flat racedays remaining, the Trainers’ and Jockeys’ Championships are still providing plenty to keep an eye on!

Asking Jo Mason the important questions 🤝🏻😎

It was fantastic to welcome classes from Loretto and Rosewell Primary Schools to our racedays during National Racehorse Week.

The pupils had the chance to:
🏇 Meet jockeys and learn more about life in racing
🥽 Use VR headsets to experience the thrill of winning a race
🐎 Have a go of being a jockey on Betty the Equisizer
🏆 Step into the parade ring to present prizes to our winning connections

Thank you to Racing to School for supporting this fantastic initiative 🙌🏻
