Point-to-point racing, a form of amateur steeplechasing, is a deeply ingrained equestrian tradition. The term “point to point” was thought to have been initially used in 1874, and the sport has grown significantly since then!

​

Races are organized at a local level by hunts or recognised clubs and are mostly around three miles long and include a minimum of 18 fences. These races are for amateur riders, providing a platform for jockeys to gain experience and for older horses to continue their careers. The local nature of the events means they are often community affairs, with spectators enjoying a day out in the countryside as much as the racing itself.
