Gates open at 11:30 with the first race at 13:00. Throughout the afternoon the races will take place in the arena, including the popular media races, known as sulky races, where the competitors sit in a small carriage behind the donkey.
Donkey rides will also be available for children and the day is marketed as a family day out. Should you wish to bet on the races then a tote will be set-up to enable you to have a “flutter” and a beer tent will be open for refreshments, the event finishes at 17:30.
The event is free, although parking will cost £5.00 per car at Home Farm Field.
