“The September weekend is where people traditionally get away one last time before the weather changes and we reckon a large number will be happy to get away to Musselburgh for a free afternoon’s racing. “
In addition to a full race card, a free entertainment programme for children includes face painting, a bouncy castle, fairground roundabout and trampolines.
