CheshireCat Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 I've read they hold meeting every alternate Sunday at 2 different venues, Royal Turf and the Sports Club. Just wondering if anyone has been and the standard/facilities etc. Do like a day at the races and if worthwhile will make the effort next month.

dekestone Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Newsweek had a story a couple of years ago about the Bangkok race tracks and said the owners basically sit around before the race and decide who's going to win. They said one jock had to zigzag his mount in order to not come in first. Funny thing, this was at the time when Purachai "Mr Clean" was Interior Minister and trying to clean up the bar scene as part of his "Social Order" campaign. He didn't touch the corruption at the tracks. So Cat, you might go and enjoy the atmosphere but I would be very careful betting unless you've got some inside dope.
