Cheltenham Festival Previews 2017

Sorry slight typo mistake by me it's not betfair it's betbright, got accounts with both!! I got an email saying I had been selected and invited to come, I have an account with betbright and fair play to them last year I won a prize draw with them because I had an ante post bet for royal ascot I got two free tickets to royal ascot with a free bar, waitress service and 4 course dinner, they were worth about £300 each...!! Not bad, can only assume as I've had a few antepost punts for cheltenham with them is why I got selected
 
Also on the night is Paul kealey, Noel Hayes, nico de Bonville and nick luck is the mc, should be good and of course will have full updates will have to do it on the night as with the free cocktails I might not remember in the morning and will be looking back myself on here to remember!!
 
That sounds fantastic. I'll swap you my ante post book on the Supreme for your preview tickets :very_drunk: :highly_amused:

I might have a spare for this if anyone is keen.
Ticket already bought and not looking for cost to be covered, just buy a few raffle tickets on the night, will know by weekend
 
Good line up, very similar to last year. It was a good night and good value at £10, Micky Hammond has been added, he's not a regular on these preview nights so he could be interesting..
 
Park Hotel, Waterford - Feb 27th @ 7.30pm

Panel; AP McCoy, Richard Johnson, Mike Cattermole, Henry De Bromhead, Patrick Mullins, Davy Russell, Alan King, Carl Llewellyn.

Warwick, Towcester, Donny, Oxford, Newbury, Bangor, Leeds, Wetherby, Birmingham, Banbury, Lambourn, Worcester, Stratford.
They say in London wherever you stand you;re never more than 20 feet from a mouse, I doubt anyone is further than 20 miles from a preview evening these days.....
 
I heard about Warwick, but didn't realise one was in Birmingham. That could work and even build a wee bar crawl into it.

Any idea what the venue is?
 
Not so much a Cheltenham preview but RUK are doing their Half Term report today. It's a 2hr show and usually worth a watch. It's repeated all night if you have missed it.
 
Thanks FM. Is Ruby part of that?
 
Oli Bell hosting with Mark Howard, Martin Dixon and Nevison on the panel. They usually get Rupert on the phone at some point. I missed the start so will watch it in full later this afternoon.

do you know what time the afternoon showing is?
 
It is being shown between 12 - 2pm, the is repeated every 2 hours for the rest of the day. I watched 5 mins before and it seemed to all be Cheltenham chat.
 
Brilliant, I'm working from home today so i'll stick this on the background.
Cheers
