WELCOMEWe have produced this guide to keep you informed with all of the arrangements for Owners and Trainers and to give you some insight into changes that we’ve made to the experience you will receive at the Investec Derby Festival.
We are delighted to be able to increase the prize money for
the two days to a record figure of £2.9 million, with all races
being run at values no less than £40,000. This is another
landmark for Epsom Downs.
A further notable change for 2017 sees the Investec
Coronation Cup move back to the Friday which now includes
two Group 1 races. The Investec Diomed Stakes (Group 3)
has subsequently been scheduled for the Saturday.
We look forward to welcoming you to Epsom Downs.
If you require any further information, please do not
hesitate to contact either Petra Gough or Beverley Frith.

ask for your patience and cooperation with our stewarding arrangements.
