Virginia Gold Cup May 7, 2011

You are invited to socialize and watch some of the finest horses in the world compete over the lush green course. Characterized by lavish tailgate spreads, sleek thoroughbreads and exciting hoof-pounding competition, steeplechase racing is said to combine the best of fast-action sports with a refined social setting. The race day features five hurdle and timber horse races, Jack Russell Terrier races, tent, tailgate and hat contests, and over 30 vendor booths for shopping.
