Aintree wants to throw out photographers who are taking photos of drunk women

[Crepello1957]

Wouldn’t it be more sensible to ban the Ladies Day? Oh, I forgot, they might lose some money.
The women are making complete fools of themselves and have no interest in the racing, or much in life besides.

A negative approach, and I expect to see further developments. These things are rarely black and white.

Such excesses certainly aren’t unique to Aintree. Epsom on Derby day, Glorious Goodwood, even Ascot itself…seems a particular type of snobbery to focus on Aintree just because the drunks may not be as expensively kitted out. Not sure how they’d target these “photographers” either, given that most people have phones capable of not only photographing victims but also broadcasting the image globally. In terms of racecourse safety, I doubt any of these people get near a horse or the racecourse. General racecourse drunks are a separate issue and evident at every meeting. All achieve that state as a result of visits to on site bars so should, in theory, be easy enough to control.

Before they do that can they throw out the likes Luck and Cunningham for their annual sport of having a chip at the ladies who turn up for a (paid) day out. Personally, I don’t believe they are any worse on the eye than the tweed and velvet collar brigade.

What have they got against drunk women, as opposed to drunk men? I don’t like to see either drunk.

Btw I’m back under my old name. The forum booted me out under my new one (no idea) but Corm has kindly sorted out my old account. Bear with me while I find my little car pic again :mrgreen:

Wish I could say I’ll be taking Nobby to the next meeting (although he’s not a fan of their muddy, bumpy car park). I’ll be on the east coast visiting my mother.
