A BUMPER crowd is expected at Fontwell Park’s family fun raceday tomorrow (Sunday 6).

It continues a busy time at the racecourse, which swung back into action in August with Ladies’ Day and an Armed Forces Raceday.

Sunday’s event combines jump racing with plenty of free entertainment for children, including go-karting, fun fair rides, bouncy castles, zorbing, face painters and a chance to sign up for the Young Hooves Kids Club.

Kids’ favourites Ben and Holly, from Ben & Holly’s Little Kingdom, will be making personal appearances throughout the day.

The raceday will raise money for the MS Society.

There will be seven races at the only figure-of-eight jumps course in the UK.
