Record crowd watch Jessie J at racecourse

A capacity crowd of 29,000 watched the multi-million record selling solo artist at this year’s second Party in the Paddock event at the racecourse.
The 24-year-old singer played a 75 minute set, which included a number of her own chart-topping tunes.
She also played a number of covers, including Bob Marley’s

and Lionel Richie's

, a fitting tribute to Ritchie who will appear at the next Party in the Paddock in September.
Before Jessie J there was an eight race card during ladies’ day.
