Ladies Day puts racecourse in hunt for award

LADIES Day at Musselburgh Racecourse is up for a marketing award.

It has been nominated in the "event excellence" category at the Marketing Excellence Awards Scotland.

Now in its sixth year, Musselburgh's Ladies Day last year broke records when it became the first Scottish race day to sell out in advance.

Musselburgh is up against the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service, Platinum One, and Tesco.

The winner will be announced at an awards dinner in May.
