I think I will give it a miss. That will learn me for not booking early. Hopefully Frankel will run at York next year, that would suit me alot better.

The viewing is not great unless you can get upstairs (Premier). Even on the steps you still end up watching the large majority of the races on the screens.https://community.betfair.com/horse_antepost/go/thread/view/94098/28491835/ascot-grandstand-viewing?post_id=509767509#509767509I was thinking of going as well, but if Premier is sold out then I shall watch on TV.
