Thx Ian

That's made me even more excited for Chaddesley later in the month.

Crikey, those three behind Twig were run legless!

Delighted to read this.

Honestly, you could not have chosen a better venue on a better day to Go Pointing.

I regard Chaddesley Corbett as just about the Premier Point track nowadays and the day you are going as often the strongest card all season - you will see horses both of the moment and for the future.

The betting ring - dominated by the legendary opinionated Mark Hill - is among the most competitive too.

Great viewing track too, about a mile and a quarter round, two fences in the home straight, there's natural elevation with a bank to watch from and they never get that far away from you, even when "out in the country."

I've attached a photo of the home straight from around the 3m start.

I'll DM you, Danny and Pawras a link to where you can get a £16 early bird ticket (it will be £20 on the gate on the day) as soon as I see one (probably after Sunday's meeting there).

Anyway, let's see how the Badbury Rings (and the Horseheath) winners get on in the Becher today!

I found this race at Chaddesley Corbett on Mark Spencer's YouTube channel which contains hundreds of point-to-point races from the last ten years or so. They were filmed mainly at northern courses like Alnwick, Charm Park and Sheriff Hutton.
