Christmas Racing

[Maddie Moo]

It‘s weird seeing the Secretariat / Meadow Stables colours over jumps. I know it’s different owners and country etc but still very odd!

 

[Maddie Moo]

Winning colours as well!

I thought we'd be getting more races from haydock we had one that's it?

Nice not having the sun ruin the races

 

[Maddie Moo]

We had two from Haydock, the 1.30 and 2.05

Better than losing 7p. Result.

I was sad paisley park was beaten on the line by the younger horse.

Big thumbs up to Ascot. We got a goody bag with a bottle of lager, a full size pack of oreos and a load of sweets and polos, Plus the food was, as usual, excellent. As well as Christmas dinner there was a cold buffet with roast turkey, pink roast beef, salmon, salad and enough to make a proper caesar salad. Top marks. Plys we got a voucher for breakfast AND lunch. Usually we only get one voucher and we try to blag an extra meal!

Where does everyone watch live racing from that ain't gonna hoover my bank account up don't have a TV so.. thank you

 

[Snow Falcon]

I have a paddy power account and can watch the races on that.

 

[Gamebird]

I'm going to Wetherby today, as a punter for once! So will be keeping an eye on Kempton and Leopardstown on my phone via Paddy Power. Hoping they'll have the KG on the big screen too

You can set up a free account with At The Races on their app. They have free livestreams of different tracks plus French, American and Asian racing.

If you want rewatch ITV today, you can use ITV X and watch it live.

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

That was really really impressive

 

[humblepie]

Didn’t go to Kempton but now in front of TV after a nice walk. Venetia knows how to get a horse fit.

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

Hoping we don't get low sun and fences omitted in the KG

 

[Maddie Moo]

French horse very impressive!

CH is also on another level.

 

[toppedoff]

Constitution Hill making that look effortless what a legend

 

[Snow Falcon]

CH just cantered home!

 

[humblepie]

ITV don’t show enough of the horses in the parade ring.

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

I agree with Ruby that all should parade, or none

 

[Snow Falcon]

At least Shiskin started

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

He didn't look very happy to though. Think he will win though

I've got a £2 EW on Frodon who was a massive price

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

I'd like hewick or reap whacker to win

 

[Errin Paddywack]

That was a shame.

 

[teapot]

Hewick

 

[Maddie Moo]

Gutted about Shiskin’s unseat but thrilled for the connections of Hewick.

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

So pleased Hewick won! What would he have been in running he was pushing along about 2 in

Frodon should be retired he's struggling now sad to see

 

[Snow Falcon]

Loved the lads reaction to Hewick.

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

Loved the lads reaction to Hewick.

Yes

 

[Snowfilly]

So pleased Hewick won! What would he have been in running he was pushing along about 2 in

Frodon should be retired he's struggling now sad to see

He hit 100-1 in running at least

 

[toppedoff]

Hewick came out of nowhere wow that was a race

Shame about Shishkin but it was lovely to watch him be at the front
