We will continue with horse racing today & tomorrow, as it's proven far more popular than I expected. Saturday & Sunday we return to football with the L2 & L1 Playoffs.
So tonight we will be at Sandown Park, which is about 3 miles from Hampton Court Palace on the south side of the Thames. Kempton Park is 2 miles the other side of Hampton Court on the north bank of the Thames. Also within a 10 mile radius are Ascot & Windsor racecourses. Those old enough might also remember Hurst Park, right across the road from Hampton Court. That closed in the fifties, & is now a housing estate, all that remains are these two piers which were part of the entrance.

Here's Brigadier Gerard, who might just be the best middle distance horse I've seen in my lifetime. And yes, better than Frankel. IMO, of course.

The race is due off at 8.10, so we'll shut up shop at 8pm;
For no other reason than it’s top of the betting and I don’t need to chase for once.
Thank you.
