Amiens Racecourse (Hippodrome d’Amiens)

Amiens Racecourse (Hippodrome d’Amiens) is a horse-racing track in Amiens, France. It opened in 1850 at 99 Av. de l’Hippodrome.

History

The racecourse was established in 1850, in which gallop races commenced since the establishment of the track, while trotting races only began in 1870. It was originally located on the current parking lot and had wooden stands, and then the present racecourse was inaugurated in 1968. It is called “the Petit Vincennes de Picardie” because of its “running” at night, trotting and galloping during its 26 annual meetings, located west of the Somme prefecture, on the edge of the Licorne stadium and the Amiens Zénith, in the heart of the city. It is also classified as a Regional Pole, enabling it to host major races such as national and international PMU races.

In 1966, a major redevelopment and renovation plan was designed for modernization, where the new track, stands, restaurant, and track lighting were built. Then in 1968, the racecourse had a complete reconstruction.

Track Details

It now has two lighted tracks: a 1,262 m grass gallop track and a 1,142 m pozzolana trotting track with rope on the right, parking space that can fit 2,000 cars, and a panoramic restaurant with 400 seats, two bars, and a chip shop and rides for children. Among these, the merry-go-round for children who would like to learn how to ride ponies. Enabling to watch the races from the following car are the two distinguished services in the track.
