LAST year's historic first Sunday race meeting at York was a tremendous success. That is why the Evening Press is delighted to sponsor the event again this year.

The Sunday race day was a little different to other meetings. It boasted the same high-calibre field, and spectators experienced the sort of sporting excitement that only York Racecourse can provide.

But the emphasis was on a family day out, for local people in particular. We want to recreate that special atmosphere again on September 2. We hope you will put the date in your diary and join us.
