The Football League Mascot Race

On Friday October 26th, as part of the Racing Post weekend at Doncaster Racecourse, we are hosting the annual Football League Mascot Race.

They cheer your team on. They build you up when your down. They embody exactly what your club is about.

But how fast can they go?

2012 has been a year of sporting triumphs in the UK. Usain Bolt and Jonnie Peacock, made their mark at the Olympics and Paralympics with scintillating sprints. But that was just building to the biggest sprint of the year.

Last season Notts County's Mr Magpie was triumphant so he (and his lovely partner Mrs Magpie) returns to defend the title but who will challenge this year?

Will there be any fallen heroes? Who's got the best start?

Just who has what it takes to go down in mascot history in this illustrious year of sport?

Stay tuned for updates on who's involved but why don't you share your best mascot memories or tell us why you think your mascot could win?
