For the young fashionistas SAJC will also host a junior ‘Fashions on the Field’ competition, so be sure to get your children ‘race ready’.

If that’s not already enough, did we also mention pony rides? Stable Stars will host a FREE kids club zone for children to enjoy. You will find pony rides with Archie and his friends, life-size games, dress ups, a colouring-in area, and a Stable Stars passport activity booklet with prizes to be won.
