RACE NIGHT AT THE CLUBHOUSE

Saturday 8th March, Race Night at the Clubhouse

Race Night was a really big success. Lots of teams turned up and really got into the spirit of racing! It was great fun. Jonny Bryan’s team won, betting lots of money on the last horse to win. The Ladies 1s also did well, wining £33,000 on one race! Thanks to all for making it a really great night. There will definitely be a follow up next year!
