Cartmel Racing Club: Your Gateway to Racehorse Ownership, Whether You're a Novice or a Veteran!

Cartmel Racing Club is nestled against the picturesque backdrop of Cartmel and the South Lakeland fells, we are on a mission to make racehorse ownership accessible to all. Whether you’re new to the sport, returning after a break, or an existing owner looking to expand your interests, our club welcomes you with open arms.

Under the stewardship of James and the dedicated team at Pit Farm Stables, we’re rapidly gaining recognition as one of the north’s leading stables. Our collective aim is simple: to achieve more success on the racecourse, and we want you to be an integral part of this thrilling journey sharing the success.

When you join Cartmel Racing Club, you gain access to a host of exclusive benefits, including your share of the prize money. You’ll also have the opportunity to enter a ballot for Owner’s badges when your horse takes to the track. Our club membership includes twice-yearly yard visits, ensuring you get up close and personal with the stars of the show. Additionally, you’ll receive regular updates on your horse’s progress and valuable post-race analyses from James, his team, and our talented jockeys
