About Kempton Park Racecourse
The first horse races took place at Kempton Park in 1878. In more recent times the current grandstand was built in 197, after some redevelopment work. The course was then closed in 2005 for the construction of the all weather floodlit course, which took 11 months to complete
The all weather surface allows racing to take place througout the entire year and Kempton is now one of the UK's busiest courses, with a mix of all weather and National Hunt racing. The highlight of their racing calendar is the group 1 King George V1 chase, which is a traditional boxing day fixtute.
