Perth Racecourse Charities Race Day crowned by Royal Visit

Perth Racecourse will play host to Their Royal Highnesses, The Duke and Duchess of Rothesay, on Saturday 20th August when they will be guests of honour at the Perth Racecourse Charities Race Day supported by Scottish Hydro.

The fixture, together with the previous evening’s Stagecoach Gala Dinner at The Perth Concert Hall, will raise funds for The Prince’s Charities in Scotland - a group of not-for-profit organisations of which His Royal Highness is President.

Whilst at the Charities Race Day, The Duke and Duchess will be invited to present The Governors Cup to the winning connections of the fixture’s feature race – namely the £40,000 Scottish Hydro Summer Champion Hurdle.

Sam Morshead, General Manager of Perth Racecourse said; ‘This fixture is shaping up to be our most popular event of all time and the icing on our cake is to have Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Rothesay attending a race meeting at Perth.  We are all looking forward to what promises to be a very special occasion for Perth Racecourse and jump racing in Scotland.”
