CHESHIRE RACES: A fixture on the spring schedule

The big question for the Cheshire Point-to-Point is always "What's the weather going to be like?" Sometimes it's sunny, warm and delightful; other years, it's muddy and sleeting and the wind is howling across Plantation Field.
No matter: The Unionville faithful are always there.
The date for the 74th running will be Sunday, March 29. Gates will open at 10 a.m. The racing starts at 11 a.m. with three pony races, followed by the inaugural Lois Neilson III amateur apprentice timber race at 1 p.m.; the Miles Valentine novice timber race at 1:30 p.m.; the Joseph Walker III Cheshire Bowl open race at 2 p.m.; the Kathee Rengert amateur apprentice flat race at 2:30 p.m.; and the Jill Fanning open flat race at 3 p.m. The final race is the Joy Valentine sidesaddle field master chase at 3:15 p.m.
