Community Raceday Featuring The Devon National - A True Test of Champions

 

With 21 fences and a stamina-sapping three miles and six furlongs, the Devon National is one of the toughest and most thrilling races on Exeter’s calendar. It demands grit, determination, and staying power from both horse and jockey.

 

Often compared to our own version of the Randox Grand National, this flagship contest regularly attracts familiar equine names returning for another crack at the challenge. It’s a race that builds stories, season after season.

 

Join us for Community Raceday, where top-class racing meets a warm, welcoming atmosphere, the perfect day out for racing fans, families, and first-timers alike.

 

Book in advance online to enjoy the best prices and be part of a true Devon tradition.

 

Remember under 18's are FREE! 

 

Bus Times: TBC
