Family Fun Day
This raceday has now passed, click here view our upcoming racedays at Exeter Racecourse.
FEATURING THE VIRGIN BET DEVON NATIONAL
What better way to spend the Friday of Half Term than at Exeter Racecourse for our Family Fun Day with a Superhero twist?
Aside from competitive racing, we will have:
- Meet and greet a Superhero
- Bouncy castles
- Climbing wall
- Cornwall Caricatures
- Racing to School
- Superhero goody bags
- Rosette making
- Colouring in
- Face painters
- Information stand from South West Wildlife Fundraising
Please note: the family fun entertainment is all FREE and will be in a heated marquee.
With 21 fences to negotiate, the Devon National is a contest which demands stamina, style and determination, so no wonder this is a popular day out for racegoers.
Some familiar equine stars regularly return year after year for a crack at Exeter’s variation of the Randox Grand National, run over three miles and six furlongs.
