They were never opened, not sure why but was told it had something to do with rental for them

I was there today and had one winner, losing £40 but had a great time in a United Kingdom!
One bit of course news from today; high draws were the order of the day, stand side horses won virtually all the sprints.
Anything drawn high had a distinct advantage. See no reason why this should change tomorrow. Gold Cup favourite is a very good horse but I believe badly drawn.

Stupid IDIOT
Except for one race where the 2nd was low drawn and only just beaten, the draw could be all change tomorrow as the fancied horses are drawn LOW

Might have to get up on 40 mins, bladder empty, queue for pie and pint of Harvey's, eat given burger and pint of Foster's then lose on Ayr Gold Cup.
Back to seat for 2nd half, avoiding all noise from Reynolds.
Sounds a plan.

Half-time horseracing trial at Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club hailed a success
Horseracing broke new ground at Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club on Saturday, when the
£160,000 Ayr Gold Cup was shown at half-time during the Club’s Sky Bet Championship clash with
Blackpool – a trial which was hailed a resounding success.
In conjunction with the Football League’s title sponsor, Sky Bet, Scotland’s most famous Flat race
was broadcast by Racing UK (Sky 432, Virgin Media 536, UPC 411 and Freeview 231) on the
concourse screens and two big screens at the American Express Community Stadium.
It was the first time horseracing had been shown live at half-time at a Football League match.
Clive Cottrell, Marketing Director at Racing UK, said:
“Supporters enjoyed a pint and a pie while gathered around
the screens on the concourses, and the racing also looked
fantastic as a spectacle on the big screen. The hope is that
other clubs will sit up and take notice and this half-time
entertainment will be rolled out across other stadiums.”
The 25,000 crowd could bet on the race through Sky Bet via
Sky’s free WiFi service, The Cloud, which reported a fivefold
increase on its average click-through rate, via the WiFi landing page advert. The bookmaker offered
all account holders a promotional code advertised on the day to avail a free £5 bet.
David Tweed, from Sky Bet, added:
“We had hundreds of Brighton & Hove Albion fans taking up
our free bet offer, and many others watching the action unfold
– so together with our partners we’ve definitely added
something extra to the match-day experience. We’re already
looking forward to building on this offering.”
Roger Matthews, Commercial Director at The Cloud, added:
“Our vision when we built the WiFi network for BHAFC was to
enable fans to be connected throughout the stadium and this
is a great example of how a good WiFi service can increase
fan engagement and entertainment within the grounds.”
Tom Gorringe, Head of Marketing at Brighton & Hove Albion, said:
“The fans seemed to enjoy the race and we’ve had some excellent feedback. We look forward to
working further with Racing UK, Sky Bet and The Cloud in promoting this half-time innovation.”
The next half-time horse race at BHAFC will be confirmed shortly.
