Horse racing is one of the most ancient sports with the nomadic
tribesmen of Central Asia racing horses since early domestication and
horse racing has long been an organised sport in many countries
throughout history.
Horse racing as a professional sport in the UK can be traced back to the
12th Century after the English knights returned from the Crusades with
Arab horses. These horses were bred with English horses to produce the
Thoroughbred horse that is the breed of horse used in horse racing in
the UK today.
During the reign of Charles II from 1660 to 1685 the King held horse
races between two horses on private courses or open fields with prizes
awarded to the winners and Newmarket was the venue for the first horse
racing meetings in Britain.
Under the reign of Queen Anne during the period 1702-1714 horse races
involving several horses on which spectators placed bets took over from
match racing and horse racing became a professional sport with
racecourses founded throughout England, including Ascot which was
founded by Queen Anne in 1711.
In 1750 horse racing`s elite met at Newmarket to form the Jockey Club to
oversee and control English horse racing. The Jockey Club wrote a
comprehensive set of rules for horse racing and sanctioned racecourses
to conduct horse racing meetings under their rules and in 1814 5 races
for three year olds were designated as “classics”: The 2000 Guineas, The
Epsom Derby and The St Ledger all open to colts and fillies and which
make up The Triple Crown, and the 1,000 Guineas and the Epsom Oaks open
to fillies only.
