Wow, another amazing year for the Goat Race. Not least of all for Bramble the Golden Guernsey, representing Cambridge, who romped home in a leisurely 1 minute 26 seconds to make it the 4th year in row that Cambridge have won the Goat Race.

Thanks to all 1,700 (!) of you who came to enjoy yourselves, the farm was stretched to capacity again and sorry to those who couldn’t get in on the day. From ticket sales, your bets at Billy Hill the bookie and donations from stallholders and brands, we managed to raise over £8,000 for the farm. This much needed money all goes to food and vet bills for the animals for the year.

Our official snaps and video are coming soon but in the meantime pictures are emerging on Facebook.com/thegoatrace and here is a short video from a fan:

Hat trick for Cambridge

Friends! Thank you so much for making The Goat Race yet another triumph for both sport and puns! Cambridge won for the third year running in a world record time of 56.9 seconds – though Oxford wasn’t far behind (despite slowing down to do a poo on the first bend of the race). But in brighter news for Oxford, the stoats did the dark blues proud in the inaugural Oxford & Cambridge Stoat Race! We’re still counting how many thousands of pounds you’ve helped raise for the farm (it’s like Scrooge McDuck’s vault here!) – but you’ll be the first to know once we’re finished!

Friends! We’ve sold close to 700 tickets for tomorrow so we’re going to have to call an end to online sales for now. But don’t worry – tickets will still be available on the door… though we can’t promise quite how many. When we’re full, we’re full… so get there early to avoid disappointment (and to catch all the fun!)

Due to unprecedented queues last year and reaching capacity within the farm (!), we thought we’d try to make the whole process that bit smoother this year and sell some of our tickets online.

If you’d like to guarantee your spot at this year’s race, please buy your tickets here from the link below, print them out and stroll right in past the crowds come the big day!
