September is here and the fall steeplechasing season has begun. Nothing is more fun on a crisp fall day than to be outside in the beautiful Virginia horse country watching magnificient thoroughbred horses vie with each other on a challenging steeplechase course. Some of our Charlottesville horse farms are racing stable which enter the Virginia race meets and many of our local equestrians enjoy spectating at the races no matter what their discipline.
