CHALKIE the Panda flew the flag for new Wessex League champions Salisbury FC at the South West Mascot Grand National.

Whites' well-known mascot, who watched Whites clinch the title on Thursday following a 3-0 victory over Horndean, raced against 13 mascots in a 100-metre sprint at Wincanton races on Sunday.

First over the line was Poole Town's Dylan the Dolphin, whose side were also crowned champions of Southern League Premier Division 24 hours prior to the event with victory over Dunstable, in front of second-placed Charlie the Chef.

Each mascot represented charities and organisations.

The fences were constructed from recycled birch taken from the Grand National at Aintree.
