Full details for Royal Ascot Owner and Trainers

Owners Badges 2025
After the success of our new owners’ badges last year, we will continue with personalised badges, designed with horse’s name and owner’s individual silk colours.
Named badges will no longer be available.
Owners’ badges are the equivalent to Queen Anne Enclosure, but allows access to the Owner and Trainers’ bars & facilities.
Allocation
Owners are offered the following badges:
• A sole owner with a runner will be offered up to six owner badges (with lunch), and the ability to purchase up to an additional four daily owner badges.
• Partnerships/syndicates with a runner are offered two options:
Syndicates
We offer for syndicates to swap their complimentary lunches for up to 10 owner badges. Additional Owner star badges are available to purchase (up to 20 badges in total, complimentary and to purchase).
Syndicates that are members of the RSA will automatically be able to book their badges on the dedicated online booking system. Other syndicates will need to confirm their wish to do this ahead of booking badges. If you think you may have a runner at Royal Ascot, we encourage you to email us in advance.
Parade Ring passes
We offer 6 parade ring passes per runner per race.
Badge Application
Please note that the PASS System will not be in use for Royal Ascot.
Applications for badges, lunches and Parade Ring passes will open after declarations for each Royal Ascot raceday (10am, 48 hours before).
Royal Ascot Owners and Trainers Online Booking
The link to the dedicated online booking system for badges and lunch will also be sent out via email to the listed owner, or the first named in a partnership or syndicate manager.
Badge Collection
Exclusively for Royal Ascot, all Owner and Trainer badges will be available to collect on the day from the Owners & Trainers’ Desk in the dedicated marquee situated at the east end of Car Park 2. Photo identification will be required.
Dress Code
All owners and trainers must adhere with the Queen Anne Enclosure Dress Code as a compulsory minimum. Queen Anne Enclosure Dress Code. Those with Royal Enclosure badges will need to adhere to the Royal Enclosure Dress Code. Royal Enclosure Dress Code.
Car Parking
Owners’ car parking is situated in Car Park 2 and is allocated one car park label and one space for each horse running. Owners with a declared runner will be emailed a digital car park pass which must be shown to access Car Park 2 on the day of your runner.
Additional purchased parking, is available in Car Park 8 or 6 on the day. Car Park 6 is available for pre-booking here.
Owners and trainers’ picnics in Car Park Two are an important part of the fabric of Royal Ascot. We are extremely proud that the whole racing community from around the world congregates there before and after racing and want to do everything we can to protect this tradition. In order for us to do this, however, we do need to seek everyone's co-operation in maintaining these picnics as just that. In recent years, the level of activity in the Car Park has expanded to include cooking equipment, professional caterers (including waiting staff), branded marquees (including with stable names) and DJs. This has changed the nature of the Car Park and made parking difficult for many people, especially those arriving close to racing who are there with runners/rides and need to park quickly. We are kindly and politely asking this year that these concerns are borne in mind in everyone's interests and to save embarrassment on the day as activity will be monitored.

TOP HATS
Ascot Top Hats are a traditional hatter close to Ascot Racecourse who work by appointment from their workshop in Wokingham, Berkshire. The sell both Vintage Silk Top Hats and New Felt Toppers as well as providing Repair and Refurbishment services. Fittings are traditionally done with a Conformateur to measure a person’s unique head shape, so a Topper can be moulded to make it comfortable to wear.
Ascot Top Hats recommend purchasing a hat instead of renting, as often renting does not address the shape of your head, but merely concentrates on size. Purchasing with a fitting is most important if you wish to enjoy the day at the races in comfort.
Call 01344 638838 to book an appointment or email [email protected]. Appointments are available up until 9pm (subject to availability).

Tote World Pool
Tote Worldpool is in operation on the first three days of the Qatar Goodwood Festival.
What is World Pool?
Like we do in the UK, many other countries operate a Tote betting system, where money is bet into a pool and those who back the winner take their share.
World Pool allows bettors from all over the globe to bet into a single pool, bringing them together into one multi-million pound betting bonanza.
Racing fans from countries such as Hong Kong, Australia, France and the USA will all effectively be betting into the same pools as the UK audience for each race.
What does that mean for bettors?
By having a number of different countries betting into the same overall pool, it means racing fans can pit their wits against bettors from all around the globe. More importantly though, it means that there will be more liquidity in the pools, with opportunities better value as a consequence.
With more individuals betting into the pool it means that big stakes bettors will have less of an impact on the dividend, providing more robust betting opportunities.
Take the Royal Ascot meeting last year for example, a £1 win stake on every winner across the meeting would have returned 9% more to punters who bet with the Tote than at SP.
Plus, there was better value in the exotic markets with the pools, with the Trifecta beating the Tricast equivalent in 72% of the Ascot races.
UK runners could be underestimated by the international pools, or the raiders could be looked over by the UK Tote customers. This difference of opinion could ensure a bigger price that one might be expecting about certain horses on the day.
At British Champions Day, Tote beat SP on five of the six winners on the card, so there’s plenty of value to enjoy courtesy of World Pool.
How much money is bet into World Pool?
World Pools were available on both Royal Ascot and British Champions Day last year, where bettors had the chance to win a share of some monumental pools. At Royal Ascot, £137 million was bet into the World Pool, up from £92 million the year before, and we could see even more this year.
As well as the straight Win and Place markets, World Pool will be in operation for a number of Exotic bets such as the Tote Swinger and Quinella, which were involved last year, plus new additions the Exacta and Trifecta.
Some of these bet types are extremely popular in other racing nations, even more so than the Win market. For example, last year at Royal Ascot, there was nearly £2 million more bet into the Quinella pools than the Win pools across the meeting.
Will Tote+ still apply?
We’re delighted to say that Tote+ will still apply on all World Pool bets. So, by betting directly at Tote, not only can you enjoy the brilliant value the huge pools throw up, but you get an extra 10% on top of your winnings.
Are there any bet types which aren’t World Pool?
The Placepot and our other multileg bets won’t be commingled. The Tote Exacta is another pool which will only be available to UK bettors.
How can I watch World Pool races?
You can watch every World Pool race live at Tote.co.uk by simply logging into your account having previously made a deposit.
World Pool Bets
From Tuesday to Thursday Tote bets will feed into the World Pool, enabling racing fans from all over the globe to bet into a single pool. This creates huge liquidity and value for racing fans. In 2021, £363 million was bet into the pools with a 15% higher return to a £1 bet, for online customers of the Tote, compared to the industry Starting Price.
There are seven bet types in World Pool for 2022, including the Exacta and Treble for the first time:
-
Win (Single Leg bet) – Pick the winner of the race
-
Place (Single Leg bet) – Pick a horse to be placed. Hong Kong place terms apply
-
Exacta (Single Leg bet) – Pick the first two horses in the correct order
-
Trifecta (Single Leg bet) – Also known as the Tierce. Select the winner, the second, and the third horse in the correct order
-
Quinella (Single Leg bet) – Select the first two finishers in either order
-
Swinger (Single Leg bet) – Also known as the Quinella Place, pick two horses to finish first, second or third in any order
-
Treble (Multi Leg bet) – Pick the first horse in three races
