Sedgefield Racecourse will be hosting a raceday coinciding with the Grand National Saturday this year.
For one year only, guests at the racecourse will have the chance to enjoy seven live races at Sedgefield, teamed with televised action from Aintree via a large screen at the course. The Grand National Saturday fixture on the 9 April, will get started at 11:15am and a live band performance from the Gangstas of Ska will follow racing in the main Paxtons Stand.
Jill Williamson, Executive Director at Sedgefield Racecourse, added: “We’re thrilled to be able to bring the Grand National Saturday fixture to Sedgefield this year, offering guests a Saturday of racing which proves to be very popular with racing fans and those looking for something to do.
Jill Williamson, “It is a great opportunity for people who unfortunately cannot attend Aintree to come racing locally and enjoy the atmosphere. The afternoon will be topped off with live music from The Gangstas of Ska after racing.”
Due to popular demand a special package has been introduced offering admission into the Hospitality Suite, a beer and curry plus a racecard for just £40* per person.
