See the Aintree action ... at Fontwell

FONTWELL race-goers get two meetings in one go tomorrow.

As well as the track’s own seven-race card, they’ll be able to watch day two of the big Aintree meeting on the big screen by the finishing post.

The Fontwell action gets under starter’s orders at 2.10 with the Butlins Conference And Events Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle.

Racing ends at 5.35 with the Arundel Equine Hospital Racing Excellence ‘Hands And Heels’ Handicap Hurdle.

Of just as much interest to many race-goers will be events at Aintree, 24 hours before the Grand National. The feature race at Aintree is the Melling Chase and last year’s winner Albertas Run is among entries, along with Master Minded and Somersby.

The 2009 Grand National-winning jockey Liam Treadwell is among those due to ride at Fontwell. The Sussex ace is booked to partner Findon trainer Nick Gifford’s runner Alderluck in the Peter Boughton Memorial Novices’ Chase at 2.45.
