The Grand Steeplechase de Paris is one of the biggest dates on the racing calendar
With a distance of 6,000 metres, the Grand Steeplechase de Paris is one of the most iconic races in the horse-racing calendar. It originated at Auteuil Racecourse in 1874. With 23 obstacles, the Grand Steeplechase is a difficult and challenging competition. It requires endurance, power, speed and courage. Victory here is a consecration. Jean Daumas won the event 5 times between 1959 and 1966. The Grand Steeple Chase de Paris is not just a race, it is also a horse racing festival. Throughout the event, there are activities based around the theme of horses, notably thanks to the Easy Racing Zone, a real meeting place for all enthusiasts.
