A Day at: Chester Racecourse horseracing-international.com/2025/08/03/a...
Chester has a reputation for being officially the “oldest racecourse still in operation” and for attracting a particularly rowdy crowd… so I was all about finding that out last Saturday.

AK Bets talks a great game but is no better than any other bookie: even 25 quid bets get referred to the trader; win two bets and a few days later your account gets closed. No explanation why. Piss poor.
