Coming off the back of an extremely successful Macquarie Picnic Races, the Trangie Gold Cup will Race on March 21.

President of the Trangie Jockey Club, Andy Mackinnon promises that this will be a day you and the family won't want to miss.

"It's a good family day out with a relaxed atmosphere.

"Mums and dads can enjoy themselves while the kids are entertained by Pooka the clown and a jumping castle as well."

This year gate entry has being funded by the Macquarie Picnic Races club to support the local community, and help the Jockey Club provide a great day out.

"We very much appreciate the support of the Macquarie Picnics getting behind the community providing free entry to the races to help encourage more people to come."
