Everyone knows horsey folk love their dogs. Recent research in our sister sport Team Chasing identified that 60% of attendees owned a dog and the figure would be broadly similar in Point-to-Point racing.
So it won't be a total surprise to discover that this Sunday's Vine & Craven Point-to-Point at Barbury stages a dog show alongside the racing. If you fancy displaying your best behaved pooch, bring him or her along for a day at the races. They're sure to enjoy the afternoon as much as you are.
Gates open at 1030 with the first race an hour later.
