While it's not just a wonderful way to spend a morning, it is also a way of rewarding these majestic animals for their hard work in the weeks preceding their big race.
Taking horses to the beach has its therapeutic advantages too - cold saltwater is commonly used in horseracing and other equestrian sports to increase mobility and assist in the reduction of swelling in limbs.
A trip to the beach gives these hardworking athletes a change of scenery which is just as important for their minds whilst giving their legs a well-earned spa day.
This calendar highlight for horseracing enthusiasts and fashionistas alike will take place at the Kenilworth Racecourse on Saturday 26 January 2019 and doors open at 10:00am.
