Just got back, what a fantastic experience over the 2 days and nights, it was brilliant and if you love your racing its a total must
Tuesday was massively more busier than Wednesday which surprised the lads I was with, we were lucky with the weather yesterday was Ladies Day and the amount of top top ladies in tweed was totally tremendous, but even with 60k people it was easy to get a beer, go to the loo and bet, ive drunk more guiness in 2 days than I had previously in my life
Betting wise ive had a great 3 days had Quevega, Sprinter Sacre, Baltazar King on tuesday then yesterday was a truely great day with Bobs Worth, Simonsig and Finians Rainbow winning me a shed load especially Simonsig, I was talking to Geraghty in a bar on tuesday night and he told me that Simonsig was a guaranteed winner, I can safely say I put the most money Ive ever put on a bet on that horse and to see it romp home was amazing, all my pals smashed into too. Today ive had Sir Des Champs (WOW) Riverside Theatre, Big Bucks
Have come home with far more money than I took and thats including all drinks, food, taxi's, hotel and train costs etc..
The town is buzzing each night after racing and we saw a few footie players, pundits, celebs out, Chris Kamara, Paul Merson (Smashed beyond belief), Michael Vaughn, Barry Geraghty, Aidan Coleman, Willie Mullins
I honestly had the best time surrounded by such friendly people, the atmosphere is brilliant
Just booked up my hotel for next year already
