Horse Racing Abroad was acquired as part of the ITC Group in November 2008.

As with ITC Sports, Horse Racing Abroad is a long-established, independent tour operator, renowned for its knowledge, industry connections and insight into the racing world and for its ability to take you closer to the action than other companies can even dream about. The relationships that allow us to deliver such experiences have been nurtured by its owner and founder Ian Fry, who, along with key members of the original HRA team - Liz Geddes and Barbara Penfold - remain an integral part of the operation today.

A year-round tour programme takes in the best flat and National Hunt meetings from around the world, the undoubted highlight being the Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Horse Racing Abroad’s private Pavilion Grandstand at Longchamp is the envy of all; nobody else can offer reserved seating from such a prime position, the best racecourse catering, special betting facilities and race commentaries in English.

We also have private luncheon rooms offering a very special hospitality experience and total flexibility in your choice of hotel, number of nights and mode of transport - "mix and match" to suit your own requirements! We have a large allocation of Eurostar trains to cover the weekend and can arrange scheduled or low-cost flights from all major and regional UK airports. It’s no wonder that many famous faces from within the British and Irish racing fraternities are to be seen enjoying the facilities – it really is the only place to be!

Other highlights for 2012-13 include the Dubai World Cup, Breeders’ Cup, Deauville Festival and our exclusive Coolmore & The Irish Guineas tour. Back by popular demand are Pardubicka, Baden-Baden and Jersey and completing the line up is a wonderful trip to South Africa for the J&B Met.
