The most adorable event of the year has happened once again at Musselburgh Racecourse. A clutch of impossibly fluffy four-legged-friends raced to be crowned champion of the Corgi Derby on Easter Saturday, April 8. But only one pup could win! Here is a gallery of the photos showing the delightful action unfold in the East Lothian town.
