There are guided tours, including trips to the start of each race via tractor and trailer, behind-the-scenes tours of the racecourse prior to racing, while there’s an interactive ‘Racing Roadshow’ designed to entertain and engage racegoers in finding out more about the sport of Racing. There’s also a mechanical horse (equicisor) to have a go on, along with pony rides. 

There’s a grand parade of non-throughbred horses from Shires to Shetland ponies, along with an Equine art display by Mima Urquhart, fairground rides and face painting and a ‘You-lose-you-Win’ Paddock betting show. 

Racegoers will be able to see former racehorses now under the care of ‘New Beginnings’, a locally-based community interest company.

 Tuesday’s seven-race programme is scheduled to begin at 2-20 p.m. The feature race is the seventh running of The Wilford Watts Memorial Handicap Stakes, a contest over the extended mile held in memory of a local racegoer, while lady amateur riders compete in The Lady Jane Bethell Memorial Handicap Stakes over one mile and a quarter – a race held in memory of a former Patron of Beverley racecourse. 

The giant screen will be in use helping racegoers to follow all of the action, as well as showing racing from the opening day of the ‘Glorious Goodwood’ meeting.
