LONDON : Britain's Jockey Club removed formal dress codes from its 15 racecourses on Thursday in a push to make racegoing more accessible and inclusive.
The Jockey Club said morning dress or formal daywear will still be required on Derby Day at Epsom for those in the Queen Elizabeth II Stand.Offensive clothing and replica sports shirts will not be permitted but racegoers were otherwise encouraged to"dress as you feel most comfortable and confident". "We hope that by no longer placing an expectation upon people of what they should and shouldn’t wear we can help highlight that racing really is for everyone.
Truesdale said racegoers were welcome to dress up but it was a common misconception that it was a requirement.
