Chelmsford City Racecourse is located in Great Leighs, Essex and is the newest racecourse in the UK. Taunton Racecourse previously held that record having been built in 1927 but in April 2008, Chelmsford opened to become the first new racecourse in the UK for over 80 years.
Although it’s only been open for a little over a decade, it went into administration less than 12 months into operation when it was known as Great Leighs Racecourse. In 2009, the racecourse closed and didn’t open its doors again until January 2015 when it re-emerged under its current name after being purchased by Betfred.
Some of the biggest races at Chelmsford City include the Chelmsford City Cup, the Queen Charlotte Fillies’ Stakes, the Chelmsford City Trophy, the Chelmsford Stakes and the Chelmsford City Gold Cup. However, the racecourse hosts around 60 different racing fixtures a year which means that there are regular Chelmsford betting tips available here at WhichBookie.
