Favourite Courses and Meetings

[arsenalfh]

Just wondering what are your favourite courses and meetings, particularly in Ireland? I'm fairly new to racing so I've only been to my local course at Leopardstown but I would love to visit some other courses in the future. Really looking forward to Irish Champions Weekend so maybe that would be a nice time to visit the Curragh. Over in the UK I'm guessing Cheltenham is a great place to go but what about Royal Ascot? I wouldn't say I would be a big fan of the atmosphere there but has anyone been there?

Re: Favourite Courses and Meetings It is the other side of the country but I really enjoy Ballinrobe. You can see the entire course from the stands, it is a sharp right hand track. Downpatrick is also worth a visit, very sharp and undulating and a tough uphill climb. My favourite racecourse anywhere is Ludlow! It is pure magic.
