Newmarket

British horse headquarters

Newmarket has several meanings united by the English town famous for horse racing.

A Newmarket is a long, close-fitting coat originally worn for riding.

Newmarket is also a card game where players bet on matching cards from their hands to those turned up from a layout.

We played Newmarket after dinner.

The town itself remains synonymous with British thoroughbred racing.
