Hello mate.
I've been point to point and don't think I would bother again to be honest.
Cost us 20 quid each to see a few races with about 4 or 5 runners and pretty much odds on favs in every race.all the same distance as well. I think 3m if I recall correctly.
If it rained you would be well stuffed as no facilities....well apart from a portable toilet and a tea/burger van.

Is that at Lockinge Howdi?

It's a cracking course. On a dry day point to point is the best days racing you can go to.

Obviously not grade 1 racing, but get the boot open, picnic out and plenty of drink.

Get up nice and close and be a part of grass root racing.

I moved to scotland 18 months ago so it's a fair ol drive down to sunny Oxfordshire. Shame the "wife" didn't fancy it.
