Last year, approximately 45,000 people gathered at the Great Meadow Events Center in The Plains, Virginia to socialize and watch some of the finest horses in the world compete over the lush green course.

Characterized by lavish tailgate spreads, sleek thoroughbreds and exciting hoof-pounding competition, steeplechase racing is said to combine the best of fast-action sports with a refined social setting. This is also an event where effective business networking takes place among many of the area’s top corporations and companies.
