Event Description
What better way to start 2020 by joining us at Plumpton for the Sky Sports Racing Sussex National on Sunday 5th January? Blow away those Christmas Blues and join us for one of our flagship races and fixtures and let’s make it a Sussex Tradition!
With over £80k of Prize Money on offer and the big race itself being worth over £30k, we always get a brilliant turn out of runners. The maximum field size of 18 is often reached and what better spectacle is there than these beautiful horses weighing around half a ton, powering over the fences at over 30mph over 3 miles 4 ½ furlongs to claim the much-heralded trophy? Last year the Nicky Martin trained The Two Amigos claimed the win in an enthralling contest, but who will the victor be this time round?!
There’s plenty more going on too, not least a further competitive six races on the card where last year we had runners from France, Ireland and all parts of England for our Cheltenham Bonus Series Race (won by the brilliant Master Dino), so ensure you listen to Colin Brown for a tipsters talk before racing in the paddock.
