National Racehorse Week took place 11-18 September. The initiative is run by Great British Racing and was funded primarily by the Racing Foundation, with additional financial support from The Horserace Betting Levy Board.
For 2022, supporting partners included The Jockey Club, Godolphin, Arena Racing Company, The Japan Racing Association and The Sir Peter O’Sullevan Charity Trust. Community and schools’ activities were supported by Racing to School, Racing Together and GoRacingGreen.
The event is supported by the National Trainers Federation and was the original idea of trainer Richard Phillips. National Racehorse Week forms a key part of the sport’s welfare strategy ‘A Life Well Lived’, overseen by the Horse Welfare Board.
