Point to Points are built around keeping hunts in the public eye. According to the British Horseracing Society, Point-to-Point Steeple Chases are for horses owned and ridden by members of an affiliated Hunt. A fixture can either be arranged by a Hunt or group of Hunts. Hunting’s ‘friendly face’ they often feature a dog show and are recruiting vehicles for hunts. As Gloucester Races puts it, “the Point-to-Point provides a great opportunity for the hunt to say thank you to the farmers and landowners whose land they cross throughout the year. It’s the hunts [sic] way of ‘putting a little bit back’.” Chaddesley Corbett regularly hosts the Albrighton & Woodland Hunt, the Worcestershire Hunt, and Herefordshire’s Wheatland Hunt. In May 2025 the course supported a fundraiser for the Albrighton which was sponsored by upmarket estate agents Balfours.
