❄️ Winter Derby & Hever Sprint Stakes – Saturday 21st February 2026 at Lingfield Park 🏇

Warm up your winter with two standout events in the all-weather flat racing season—the prestigious Winter Derby and the fast and furious Hever Sprint Stakes, both taking place at Lingfield Park Racecourse on Saturday 21st February 2026.

🌟 The Winter Derby — Elite Middle-Distance Racing

One of the UK's premier Listed races, the Winter Derby features top-class middle-distance thoroughbreds tackling 1M 2F on Lingfield’s famous Polytrack surface. The 2025 winner, Royal Champion, delivered a powerful performance for trainer Karl Burke and jockey Clifford Lee, reinforcing the race’s reputation for showcasing future flat racing stars.

⚡ The Hever Sprint Stakes — Pure Flat Racing Speed

Just as thrilling is the Hever Sprint Stakes, a Listed five-furlong dash that tests sheer speed and timing. In 2025, the title was claimed by Clarendon House, a seasoned six-year-old trained by Robert Cowell and ridden by Sean Levey, electrifying the crowd with a powerful finish.
