But that's why it's a good un to go to as a racing enthusiast. Most of the crowd just stay in the bar. You can get around between parade ring and stands with ease between races.

I've been there as part of a stag do on the day McCoy won the National and its a top spot if you're with a group not completely mad keen on the racing (bar me that was!). I'd never dream of heading to Cheltenham with the same crowd put it that way. Found it a lot easier to navigate than Cheltenham too, which suited us well.

There's nowhere quite like Cheltenham though.

Sad to hear of more fatatilies

 

[NassauBoard]

Sad to hear of the deaths.

Ballyoptic is a proper trier!!

Suspect Rupert might just have won on that!

Really does show how important he is to the Mullins team.

Nicholls is a useless fat **** - how can he turn out an animal that pulls up like that with a circuit to go?
Twister is the man, come on Ballyandy

Yes, indeed, very sad. It's a bitch of a track, in many respects.

Paul Townend or the majority of pros would be worth a nose over Patrick round 3m to be fair. The winner was very game but Bellshill, at last, looked a class horse. 3m is what he needs clearly.

Rodneythetrotter is a massive price on his running with Andy from early season. He's still getting some weight here too, coming In fresh as a daisy. Had a small piece of the 40/1 available. Could blowout easily but again worth it at the price.

Didn't appear to do much wrong there really Beefy? Clipped the 2nd last alright but sure Ruby would have had him on the deck at the final hurdle anyway

No he didnt do much wrong at all just outbattled in finish perhaps. It's just a view that over 3m Ruby is surely but surely worth a nose over an amateur?!! Has to be! Small margins can be decided by jockeys...

PS Yes part of me did think Ruby would a managed to deck him at that mistake. He's got Douvan to do that to sure... <run>

You would have to believe so.

Had a little bit on Bolving and Utility in the bumper, with an optimistic R/F............
