Hence my last sentence in the statement....if you plan it properly.

GDC is a monster on soft/ heavy ground. I'm not sure he's as effective on a sounder surface. However, my theory could easily be debunked.

Start of this season.I think. Other meetings I believe it's about £80-£100. Another thing I don't get, Cheltenham has some great restaurants, book in advance and eat there after racing.

Profitable festival but probably my least enjoyable from a racing perspective. Tuesday and Wednesday (my favourite two days and usually the best 2 days), we're pretty dull. Have to start referring to State Man as Allan Wells! Champion chase (my favourite race), was a damp squib too. Thursday and...

Style day now! You ain't allowed to use the L word anymore

Sorry Max must have misread your post yesterday at 2016 saying its raining, when it wasn't hence my reply.

We've had plenty of rain overnight, with more to come. Soft, heavy in places currently.....

I live in Cheltenham and it hasn't rained all day so not sure where you are getting your info from?

Don't torment yourself mate, wait til Sunday!

A very rare dry day yesterday.

Hendo was on the Unibet preview last night and said he wouldn't be running.

We seem to have avoided snow, plenty of the wet stuff though.

It's been the wettest I've ever know it in the last month.

Appreciate that Nick, accommodation is where the cost shoots up. I was trying to make the point that the ticket/food and drink prices even though expensive aren't exclusively expensive to the festival if you compare with other live events.

I don't think the cost is prohibitive either, a friend of mine has paid £120 to go on the Thursday to Aintree. 6 nations and concert tickets are more expensive (I very briefly looked at the cost of taking my daughter to see Taylor Swift at Wembley!). Also before the pandemic friends went to...

My issue with it this year is the lack of competitiveness in many of the races. Not quite on the scale of the DRF yet but still enough to temper my enthusiasm.
