Orient-Express has its own private marquee for the afternoon providing race cards and Tote facilities, music and television coverage. A celebrity speaker will go through the race card. Champagne and canapés will be served on arrival and afternoon tea will be served later in the day. There is also a full cash bar service in the marquee.

At the end of the day, reboard the Northern Belle at York station and relax with a glass of chilled champagne.  Later, a sumptuous dinner is served accompanied by half a bottle of wine.
