The racing:

With six races on the card, including the Edgcote Gold Cup, it is bound to be an entertaining afternoon of racing. Alongside this, there will be many more fun activities and stalls for children and families to enjoy, including a bar, a dog show, a pet corner, and live music. Bring your friends, pack a picnic, and enjoy a fun-filled Sunday for the whole family.

Well behaved dogs are invited to join in with the fun but please keep them on a lead at all times and clean up after them.

What else is on:

MR PAUL ADAMS

Mr Paul Adam will be playing live music during the day and after the last race to keep the fun going. With covers of country classic, get your dancing (cowboy) boots on and sing the evening away.
