After last year’s COVID cancellation, the return of the Parkes Picnic Races last Saturday was not only a great day out for punters and lovers of fashion, but also provided a great day of races.

The feature race, The Parkes Services Coradgery Cup was won by George Two trained by J Rolfe and ridden by M Travers.
The Broadway Hotel Maiden Plate was won by Superior Power, trained by local Sharon Jeffries and ridden by A Banks.
