The inaugural 'Visit Bawtry' Race Meeting, in partnership with MODE Magazines, is under starter's orders as a host of the town's businesses join forces to provide race sponsorship for six of the races on Saturday 28^th April 2012.

The 'Visit Bawtry' stakes sees racing sponsorship stalwarts, The Crown Hotel and Robinsons of Bawtry, joined by Ziniz Tuscan Restaurant, Fine & Country Property Agents, China Rose Restaurant, Innovation Financial Services, Coco Ice Cellar Cocktail Bar and MODE Magazines, all of whom are looking forward to a maiden outing on the hallowed turf of Town Moor.

"We are thrilled to be part of the inaugural 'Visit Bawtry' Race Meeting and are looking forward to playing our part in promoting Bawtry to a race going crowd," commented Alex Calzini Proprietor Ziniz.

Fellow restaurateur Estelle Johnston of China Rose concurred, "This is a very proud moment for all businesses in Bawtry to hold such an evening at our wonderful Racecourse. We are confident the race meeting will be a huge success and we shall look forward to welcoming race goers back to Bawtry after the racing concludes."

The event has been organised by Doncaster Racecourse and Bawtry Retail Association (BRA) which has seen business owners in the town form a partnership to promote Bawtry as the premier place in Doncaster to live, work, shop, socialise and enjoy the finer things in life.

The evening gets underway at 5.05pm with the final horses romping over the finish line just after 8.15pm. And, whilst the town's retailers and their guests will have been mingling on the Champagne Lawn all evening, the party doesn't stop there!

All race goers are invited back to Bawtry, where upon presentation of a race ticket you can enjoy a complimentary glass of Pimms courtesy of Coco Ice Cellar Cocktail Bar followed by a glass of Champagne and also Oysters supplied by Bawtry's latest business, ZUVU - a fresh fish and seafood bar.

"Each of the race sponsors will have the opportunity to choose the Best Turned Out Horse and also make the winners presentation," commented Ross Jarvie Fine & Country Property Agents.

"We extend a warm welcome to all to join us, for what promises, to be a very enjoyable evening for everyone."
