Went the Sat/Sun a few years back, Joe Lively paid for the expses. Seriously thinking of going to this rather than the festival.

if the weather is kind , the sunday is a great value day's racing . to be honest the sat. is not brilliant w/out the p p cup. i'll go all 3 hopefully but sunday the one if only going for the one .

Always go Sunday (hate crowds) Saturday, full of pub trips.
Bula, Saturday in mid December, is surprisingly & refreshingly quiet. |
|
By:
Yes, Saturday of the Open is overhyped relative to several other days at Cheltenham. I agree the December meeting is very good, as is Trials Day (sometimes).
If I could change one thing about the course it would be their obsession with 2 1/2 m G3 handicap chases. it seems to be the law that there has to be one at every cheltenham meeting. How about some variety lads! |

By:
Going this year for the first time. Can't wait. The sunday looks like some good contests are likely to be in store.

Does anyone have any discount codes for the open meeting Saturday?
Would be much appreciated if you do. |
|
By:
Anyone know how many were in the crowd today (sat)?
|
|
By:
the best mate enclosure seemed very empty compared to recent years and judging by sundays poor card with 2 novice races a c/js race and the usual flat race. ill give it a miss thanks
|
|
By:
Best Mate was almost deserted yesterday...
I slightly disagree about tomorrow's card though, just because the 2 novice races seem quite strong (especially the chase). |
|
By:
Great weekend again, looking forward to next year already
 |
|
By:
About 32000 were there on Saturday i think.
|

By:
i go to this meeting and the national meeting.i miss out on the festival as i think its too drawn out and the place not able to cater for the crowds..
