Nearby Kempton Park: William Hill Winter Festival

- Visitor Information
Can Long Run continue his winning streak to claim a second consecutive William Hill King George VI Steeple Chase at Kempton Park or is there a new star waiting in the wings? Last year, amateur jockey Sam Waley-Cohen ended Kauto Star's hopes of an unprecedented fifth straight win with victory on Long Run, who goes into this year's Boxing Day race the bookmakers' favourites. The King George VI Chase is the showpiece event at the two-day post-Christmas William Hill Winter Festival at Kempton, the closest racecourse to central London. The King George VI is one of three Grade 1 races on Boxing Day, the best of the two days of racing. Both days should prove a great opportunity for racing fans to get a piece of the action so get your tickets early to avoid disappointment. With 12 races in total across the two days, the Winter Festival is the mid-season jump racing festival you simply cannot afford to miss (provided you hedge your bets correctly).About Kempton Park
The closest racecourse to London (just 40 minutes from Waterloo by train), Kempton Park has a very different atmosphere to the more rural courses with DJs and discos to keep the crowds entertained, cheap floodlit evening races to attract working punters on weekdays and no dress code beyond a vague adherence to respectability.
