Ive provisionally reserved a table for ten however, I can increase numbers as and when I know how many are coming.

Races details:

Before any races are shown the Compere will begin with an introductory film which explains the rules and sets the scene.

It’s very simple and quickly understood by everyone. The races themselves consist of 8 horses identified by number only.

These are just as they appear on television in full colour with professional commentary by well known racing commentators.

Members of the audience choose their horse from the amusing names on the race card which are also numbered between one and eight. They then buy the corresponding ticket from the ‘Tote’ (betting desk). It’s usually £1 a bet. One of the 8 films is then chosen at random by a guest after the betting is completed. The film is loaded onto the projector and shown on the screen. Everyone cheers on the runners, hoping their horse will win.

At the end of the race the lucky winners collect their winnings from the desk and then betting re-opens for the next race. In between races a quiz is run.
