There are plans to finish Fakenham Racecourse's season in spectacular fashion on Sunday (June 4) for the annual Jarrold Ladies Day meeting.

Thousands of racegoers will be dressed up to the nines for the occasion, which organisers say will be "packed with entertainment and fashion".

Having supported the event since 2017, the Jarrold Style Team will be exploring the event throughout the day to find the most fashionable people and invite them to join the competitions which will be held on the Chairman’s Lawn.

There will be prizes for best dressed, best-dressed couple and best hat.

A highlight of the racing action will be the Jarrold Handicap Chase, which has prize money of £25,000 and takes place at 4pm.

Three last-time-out winners are on the list of 13 entries for the competitive race over two miles and five furlongs.
