Football, Horse Racing, Wimbledon, Polo, all of these spectator sports link to London. Football season runs from Aug. to Apr. and attracts fiercely loyal fans. Games usually start at 3pm and are great to watch, but the stands can get very rowdy, so think about reserving seats. There are horse-racing tracks at Kempton Park, Sandown Park, and the most famous, Epsom, where the Derby is the main event of early June. Racing takes place midweek and on weekends. |
