Four Tickets for Race Day at Plumpton

Horseracing first took place at Plumpton Racecourse in 1884. The foundation and survival of Plumpton as a racecourse is principally due to the foresight and commitment of four men.

First in 1876 Thomas Henry Case who founded the venue as the first enclosed hare coursing meeting and subsequently, in 1884, introduced horse racing.  Second to Isidore Kerman who bought the course in 1961 and brought about many of the improvements that were needed to ensure the course’s survival and finally to Peter Savill and Adrian Pratt who purchased the course in 1998 again to ensure its economic survival and protect it from the developers.

A great day out kindly donated by Peter Savill and Adrian Pratt
