By:
I have Southwell (aw) before Goodwood,Yarmouth,Brighton,Bath,Epsom any day for punting
|
|
By:
Not been to Southwell since they put the sand down. Used to be a pretty little NH course with a a quietish but decent atmosphere.
In comparison Wetherby was a dump even when they had decent racing there. |
|
By:
I concede that Yarmouth is awful.

whilst I wouldnt wont any to close I must admit I wouldn't miss goodwood. |
|
By:
Taunton ain't the best
|
|
By:
great racing at taunton though pedro.
salmon good description of wetherby and what great fixtures they get as in Saturdays and boxing day yet a very disappointing racecourse,taunton poor fixtures but a wonderful place to go and you get good racing,re southwell its still fine. |

No mention of Bangor ?
|
|
By:
I agree Bangor is a shocking omission.

flag of goats is a pretty random username , is thier a reason behind it im just curious

Southwell AW is one of the best punting tracks imo, so from for that reason its not in the top 5 worst more like the top 5 best
Wolverhampton until this week would of been on the top 5 worst for punting reasons but since the new tapeta was installed its become much fairer, last year was a disgrace though, the racing was dreadful from a punting point of view My worst 5 (punting terms) are Bangor (like Hexham, just build a mosque on it, horrible track) Epsom (the most overrated track in the country, its supposed to be "flat racing" and yet they have a mile climb up a mountain??) Kempton AW (although I like watching the racing there, its the nicest AW track) Hexham (just build a council estate on it, the racing and the track itself is horrible) Perth (don't mind the racing but betting opportunities are poor imo but decent jump action) |

By:
Thats wat I meant in terms of betting.
|
|
By:
I must have drunk too much wine as I agree with some of horseburgers comments, but, I disagree vehemently with his views on Hexham.
Hexham racecourse on Yarridge Heights is the most beautiful setting for racing in England. Any National Hunt enthusiast should make a point of making the journey to Hexham. Admittedly the racing isn't of the highest quality, but, there's more to a days racing than betting.  |
|
By:
Totally agree on Hexham , just been the twice and its in a beautiful location. While the Handicap races aren't the best the Novice events are quite decent quality.
Also agree about the comments on Wetherby , for a track that can have some decent quality racing it really has poor facilities and is soulless. Not keen on Newcastle either. |

By:
Perth is buzzing on a race day.
|

By:
that will be the flies around the smelly scottish personages, nasty

Going back to the original question..."worst" as in which way? Facilities,racing,viewing,betting market,etc,etc ??

By:
i.e. Why is Bangor so bad? Also,until they recently put those,admittedly,awful,roll-on,roll-off "fences",Worcester used to have some cracking novice chases.One of the very best tracks,along with Newbury,to send a decent novice chaser to,according to Francome.
|
|
By:
Pontefract a cracking course that get's **** loads of people in. Norman Gundell one of the best clerk of the courses you will find anywhere and thinks about his customers unlike some ****s like Newbury and Epsom.

The beast
Mine are betting related, although like I say on a couple of them I like the racing, Kempton AW is good viewing but poor for betting personally. |
|
By:
What's wrong with Perth?
|
|
By:
Horse Burger,just spinning back through your posts. Wasn't sure if this was a general dig at courses in general. I can see you're viewing through a "punting" view.
|
|
By:
I like some of the courses ie Perth Kempton, the racing is pretty good, godolphin send a lot of theirs there, as does Stoute, Hannon etc.
|
|
By:
Perth is a great course,very well run,and hopefully,will be there for a long time to come. I'm not sure what the original thread was getting at,as there's been about 20 courses mentioned so far! Kempton is obviously,jumping-wise,aiming at basically 2,3,maybe 4 days a year NH-wise,with a couple of AW days thrown in. Doesn't make it a bad course in my eyes,it's very well run etc.
|
|
By:
From a punting point of view, I seem to struggle with Newmarket, Chepstow and Chester. Newcastle has never been overly kind to me either.
Likes are Cheltenham, Brighton, Goodwood, Aintree. |
