Don't Miss the Race Day

Calling fearless punters everywhere! Break out the piggy-bank and join us for the very first RHSCL Raceday to be held at Royal Windsor racecourse on the afternoon of Saturday June 25th. What better way of spending an idyllic summer's day than on the banks of the Thames, relaxing with a glass of something fizzy and cheering home your selection in the big race?

And with Honest Al, the Punters' Pal, the man the bookies fear, to give you an exclusive guide to the runners and riders, you can, as they say, fill your boots with winnings.

It would be good to have an idea of numbers as soon as possible. If you're interested, please contact me, Al Senter, on alsenter@yahoo.co.uk
