TESTIMONIALS

Good afternoon David,  We visited Leicester Racecourse as owners yesterday.  I just wanted to drop you a note with some feedback. Your staff were so helpful and smiley. We were well greeted upon arrival. It was a lovely to touch to receive a complimentary drink.  Upon arrival in the owner's marquee again staff were so friendly and happy to help. The food was great, and another nice touch was the coffee, tea and great selection of biscuits.  It was a shame our horse didn't win but great hospitality. All the best. SR    24/07/24

I would just like to thank all the people at Leicester Racecourse for such a fantastic day. 
All the amenities were spotless and the food was well presented and I can recommend the Tuna.
Serving Staff were friendly and hard working.
Looking forward to when our horse runs at Leicester again.
Regards John Perkins


Hello,  Just a message to compliment Leicester Racecourse on how well looked after it is, the grounds and public areas. Also, I thought the meal in the Owner's restaurant was really good. A far cry from a soggy sandwich straight out of the fridge at a lot of tracks!  I had the Chicken Chasseur which was very good indeed.  Staff were really good and friendly.  Regards  Carol Hare


Hi Diana    I just wanted to say a huge thanks for looking after Diamond Racing share holders so well on Saturday 29th April when Ivy Avenue run a great second on what I know is your biggest day of the year.   I acknowledge how you went way beyond the call of duty when making sure so many share holders were able to access the owners facilities, and this is hugely appreciated. Not all courses are so helpful and the experience we had at Leicester was so good and means we are actively looking for more suitable races with you.   If I can do anything else re online reviews / feedback that I can help with please let me know. As I said before I am very local in Goadby and it is great that my local course are so welcoming to our syndicate members, there are many bigger courses around the country who can learn more than a thing or two from Leicester!    All the best and hopefully see you soon.    Kev    Kev Burgess Racing Manager Diamond Racing 23/5/23


Good afternoon Diana   Yesterday was the first time I’ve attended Leicester Race course as an owner and I thought I would drop you a note to express our thanks for an excellent day.   From the moment we arrived in the car park, collecting our badges and having a very good lunch all members of the Leicester race course team could not have been anymore helpful and friendly.   I hope it isn’t too long before we return.   Kindest regards  John Battershall (General Hubble 2.25 race) 7th Dec 2022


 Just a thank you to all involved with the owners facilities yesterday evening (28th). Despite the torrential downpour mid meeting, everyone from the car park stewards to the staff serving the excellent owner’s meal were welcoming and professional.  It was my first time at the course and I will certainly return.
Regards, Stuart Monks.



"I would just like to pass on my thanks, on behalf of my brother and myself, for the excellent meal and great service in the owners and trainers yesterday.  In fact to the minute we arrived, every member of staff from the person at the car park, getting our badges, directing us to where we at to go, was very friendly and polite.  We both couldn’t fault our visit to your racecourse.  Hopefully we may be back to visit you, if there is a suitable race for us to enter.  Once again, thank you for making our visit most enjoyable". Terry Parker 12th January 2022
