    • Has anyone received a notification that they are getting a delivery from Nottingham racecourse this week?

      I'm assuming it's my festival tickets but not sure why it's saying Nottingham

        If you're spending that sort of money on horses though it must be such a small percentage of your income you take the rough with the smooth, and know you're gonna get more flops than tools. Comes with the territory. I'm sure the Tizzard's had a 250k+ horse that broke down on the gallops the day after having arrived at the yard. One tear or break and thats it, never even saw a racecourse.

            I didn't dare click on the link just in case it was a scam. If it is my festival tickets, they are being delivered tomorrow so we'll soon see.

              Yep, mine are coming today. Think Nottingham racecourse is where Jockey Club bases its ticketing operation, im sure its where tickets ive had for other JC courses have come from too.

                    • With tickets arriving, what's everyone's plans? I'm v fortunate that my in laws live in Cheltenham so I have free accommodation. Got 2 club tickets for free with my rewards for racing points, so and the partner are going up on Tuesday evening, then hitting the course Wednesday. Then a load of work lads are coming on Thursday as we think we'll land jolly tickets so all in I'm aiming for two days merely at the cost of petrol and the wife's tolerance of my bullshit haha

                            • Whatever Gordon does on the Friday, he may be value to be top trainer, over the four days. You'd imagine Willie will probably be odds on.

                                Imagine the scenes. Think I’m going to do the Canadian of RWF, Tiger, American Mike, Dunboyne & Mount Ida. Fancy him to have a good year and think they’re probably his most likely winners with firm targets.
