The Three Wishes Pancake Race on ITVs The West Country Tonight.

At 11.00 am to celebrate Shrove Tuesday, over 25 contestants of all ages came out to take part in The Three Wishes Pancake Race 2010.

There were four heats this year including three for children, having a flipping good time during half term! Two of the childrens races were won by siblings, Thomas Chandler, 12, and Ellie Chandler, 9, and the third by Athena Stavrov, 9. The adults race was won by reigning champion Mark Gurney from Casterbridge Tours in Sherborne. All proceeds from the Pancake Race, as well as £1 from every Pancake sold on the today, went towards Sherborne Rugby Clubs new clubhouse fund.

Brett Sutton, Head Chef at The Three Wishes said: The turn out this year was fantastic we even had three races just for children which were all great fun! Wed like to thank Mike Burks from Castle Gardens for starting the race, all the runners that took part, and all those that came out to lend their vocal support!
