About the Epsom Derby

The 12th Earl of Derby and Jockey Club president Sir Charles Bunbury launched the Epsom Derby in 1780, after spinning a coin to decide who the race would be named after. While the earl won the title, Bunbury’s horse Diomed won the first mile-long event. 

Today, over 150,000 spectators including Queen Elizabeth attend the quintessentially British national sporting event on the first weekend in June each year, kicking off on the Friday with Group 1 classic the Epsom Oaks followed by the main Epsom Derby the next day.

Legendary winners include Sea Bird in 1965, 2016 champion Harzand, and Shergar, who won by the biggest ever margin of 10 lengths in 1981 and was notoriously later kidnapped. Another famous moment came in 1913, when suffragette Emily Davison was killed after running onto the track in front of King George V’s horse.

Getting to the Epsom Derby

If you’re planning to attend the Epsom Derby, travel there in style with a private jet charter to London. In addition to convenient benefits like faster check-in and extra luggage space, you’ll enjoy exclusive amenities like personal flight attendants and bespoke onboard catering.

We can source a range of luxurious private jets to suit every need, from light aircraft for up to eight passengers to heavy jets for groups of 16 or more. For the ultimate VIP experience, choose something like the Airbus A319 CJ, which has an office, bedroom with shower, and dining space. We can arrange a private jet charter to popular London airports within 30 miles of Epsom Downs Racecourse, including Gatwick, Biggin Hill and Farnborough.
