Musselburgh Racecourse’s Next Meeting Free To All

Oncourse Bookmakers Back 20 January Raceday Initiative

Musselburgh Racecourse are offering people the chance to chase away the January blues with free entry to their next meeting on Wednesday 20 January.

With the support of on-course bookmakers at the East Lothian track, the normal £20 admission cost is being waived.

And with a large number of abandonments over the two weeks due to rain, Musselburgh is expected a large number of entries for the fixture.

Musselburgh Racecourse general manager, Bill Farnsworth, said: “With a good number of meetings being called off, there is a build-up of horses needing races on decent ground and we can offer that at Musselburgh on Wednesday.

“Thanks to the support of our on-course bookmakers we will be opening our doors for free so it’s a great opportunity for new racegoers to discover the thrill of competitive jumps racing, plus it’s a nice pick-me-up for our regular customers after the expensive holiday season.”

Racegoers can book their free ticket in advance via the course’s online booking system or simply turn up at the turnstiles on the day. Gates open at 11am and the first race is at 12.40pm. For more information please visit www.musselburgh-racecourse.co.uk
