Hi Ronnie
Remembering that thread you put up looking for winning distance preferences for those 7 " good things £ a few weeks ago , reckon there won't be many winners or even runners going by memory.... Remember Marine Nationale Sir Gino El Fabiola Constitution Hill Galopin De Champes Gaelic Warrior ?????????? Not sure of the other one but if that does.t put people off backing long term ante post shorties nothing will , ironically the only winner so far was the warm up flop. Crazy unpredictable sport we all love  |

Agree with Sontium, this must be a wake up call for the decision makers.
My brother was there yesterday in a group and said it was easy enough to get around without the messiness of other recent years. |

Only way to get any change is for people to vote with their feet and wallet, if we say no it’s too expensive then they have to lower the prices or risk losing their cash cow

Number one thing they need to do with their profits is concrete over the car parks, where else at such a huge sporting event would you have to wear your best shoes then park on grass aka mud.

Not a surprise. You fleece customers for too long, they will eventually leave.

£20 to park your car. The wheels are coming off the Cheltenham greedy
|

By:
I heard £30 tri
either way...scandalous |
|
By:
minimum should be gravel car parks
|
|
By:
At least you get value in the car park, you can spend hours in it after racing.

.... ,In fairness to Matt, he said how disgusting this was on ITV this morning. |

Vote with your feet it's the only way

Thing is, they will charge these prices, because they know people will always go to Cheltenham. But for the majority of us it's too expensive.

Went once Gold Cup day, never again, a horrible experience but other meetings through the winter a good day out if you can bear the cost.

I thought it was a deliberate strategy to reduce the crowd sizes this year?

Not by that much
