Which day of the Festival are you most looking forward to?

[harry]

Wednesday for me.

QM race
RSA
Great novice races
Great handicaps and......

The Bumper!!!

 

[Bar the Bull]

Always Tuesday for me.

But Wednesday this year is running it close due to my attendance.

Four days is too much. I think they should make it a one-day festival.

18 races, starting at 9am, finishing at half five.

 

[Euronymous]

It was Tuesday, but the whole Grandouet/MTOY thing has me dreading rather than looking forward to it now.

Tuesday / Wednesday a toss up.
Ryanair Chase makes Thursday interesting; would have been more so if OTB was selected for Charity race. Hope to make all 3 days this year.

 

[Bar the Bull]

All three days....is that intentional smart-arse-ism?

If so, I doff my hat to you.

Tuesday. After the Champion Hurdle I start focusing on the 2000 Guineas and the Lincoln.

[Aragorn]

I'd say Tuesday as well but I sometimes wonder if that's just cos its the first day!

I consider this to be more-or-less equivalent to premature-ejaculation.

Some flaming, ninnies just can't hold it together for long enough, and have to go for a cold-shower.

 

[Diamond Geezer]

It's like Christmas really, Christmas Eve is always about the anticipation, thereafter some Christmases are crap, others OK and some are brilliant. I'm looking forward to the whole week but by the end of Wednesday will begin to see if the wait was worthwhile.

 

[Perpetual]

Has to be Tuesday: Supreme, Arkle, Champion Hurdle, Bar...

Never get the fascination some have with the bumper

Its fascinating to see how many horses I can back in the same race that dont finish in the top 10

 

[clivex]

Racist!

 

[clivex]

Weds for me. Day i'm going, so that sort of makes sense

I love the coral cup too. Strangely lucky race for me over the years as well but some spectacle

 

[harry]

Racist!

I never back black Irish horses

Even though Ive probably eaten a couple

There are two many handicaps abd impossible races Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The first 3 races are the business.

[SlimChance]

...but you profiling of me is spot on.

 

[Tout Seul]

That roar when the first race starts on Tuesday sets me up for the week!

As for the handicaps, thats where you win the money to blow on the Championship races.

Bit like Royal Ascot.

The Gold Cup is always the race I look forward to most, but as a whole Tuesday would be my favourite day.

Im the opposite, Gold Cup is my most disappointing race of the week by far...Started with Dessie in 1990 and then Carvill's Hill etc
