Our celebrated Clydesdale race is a fund raiser for the Devon Air Ambulance Trust. You might wonder what the association between Clydesdales and Devon might be, but these gentle giants live at Brimpts in the heart of Dartmoor with Tim Ancrum and Aileen Ware of Adventure Clydesdales. Local food, drink and attractions will also be on show and our seven race card is sure to throw up a classy winner or two this is the meeting after all where Harry Fry s highly regarded American won his novice chase debut last year.
