Anyone else going this week?
I'm in the Gordon enclosure Tuesday and I hear it's also POTG.
Love Glorious Goodwood

Personally I can't think of anything more boring.
But enjoy your day and try not to block the traffic around here old chap.

Been 3 times, but only once did I see actual live racing. Anyone who experienced the weather there last year will know what I mean.
It was just the WORST!

Bit of a chance leaving it to rumours of being POTG, non? Used to always be able to buy Gordon tickets from the bus driver of the coach going up to the course from Chi bus station. And of course if all else fails you can always watch for free from Trundle Hill. Enjoy!

Fabulous days of equine sporting brilliance...I used to love it...

Had a wee Lucky 15 today and will be watching later.

Phew! You'll be able to shop around for the least bad odds on Stradivarius then

I am going friday, looking forward to it, missed it last year due to the weather.

It should be a lovely week of racing.Although it doesnt seem Uncle Tone has any runners at all this week.

Sounds like a fiddle.

and get your binoculars out.

After earlier incidents, Goodwood are taking steps to stamp out drink-related violins this season.

 

[Barry Izbak]

Never known it so quiet.
Easy to get a beer
Easy to find a seat for my old mum
And profitable win on the last
All good

Going on Thursday with a group of mates.

Is there a strict requirement for suit jackets & ties in the Gordon enclosure?

No. You're "encouraged" to wear a jacket and tie. Not compulsory.
No shorts though. Saw a prat get turned away.

So it's the Stewards Cup tomorrow and I managed to spend an hour or so studying form this afternoon and this is the output from my deliberations:

As per normal it's a very very difficult one, so will look out for Saturday morning punts/gambles! However, I do reckon that Dean Ivory has maybe laid out Eirene for this one.?
It was only 4-1 in a Group 3 at Ascot latest and was eased when beaten. It is now 1lb less in a handicap and at 28-1 (the win) on Betfair and at 5-1 first six finish looks good value for me.

Been going over 30 years on the Thursday and last Thursday was the quietest i'd known the Sussex bar to be. Got a pint after each race in about 5 minutes.
