MTTUK – Day 56 – Ascot

September 27, 2009 on 12:06 pm | In Mini Takes the UK | 2 Comments

No Mini events today so I noticed that there was some racing at Ascot so I headed to the wonderful Ascot Racecourse to watch the horsies race.  Ascot is a gorgeous track/facility and perhaps the nicest I’ve ever been to.  

“Hey G, I told you I was going to win”

Betting in the UK is quite different then in the states where there is only one betting authority on the track.  Here there is the government’s authority and then countless other bookmakers on hand to take bets.   Their racing forms are a bit different as well but out of four races I cashed tickets on two of them and was really close on the other two.
