I’m going Sat, not sure if I’m going members or grandstand, but fancy it’s gonna be a hot day, may
wear a polo shirt, chinos and deck shoes.Are the Ascot rules re: dress as strict as they used to be.
What’s the score thesedays?
I am also going on sat.
Got to be smart, shirt and tie ect.
If you bying tickets go to ascot website and use promo code "betfairboost" it will give you 50% off you tickets!
I reckon there’ll be torrential downpours so take my advice Matthew by going dressed in green wellies or galoshers, an Aquascutum Navy Gabardine Mackintosh and a yellow souwester hat. You might stand out from the crowd a bit but at least you’ll keep dry.
Don’t thank me. That’s what friends are for.

Don’t mind the train to be fair.
Pop all your gear on, look in the mirror. If you look like a twat then you have the Ascot look perfect!

Do you not think you’d be better off going to a Saturday evening meeting at the likes of Doncaster, Matthew, where I’m sure you would feel much more at home and with like-minded folk?
Whilst we’re on the subject of lager louts, can I rest assured knowing that if any jockey puts in a "shocking ride" that you’ll be one of the first into the unsaddling enclosure to give them a piece of your mind?

Are you saying I’m a lager lout?
I saw you never mentioned that I was looking to top class racing aswell?I’ve been to Donnie aswell, all good fun.
A few years back I got the train all the way down from Inverness to attend the Friday of the Festval of Racing meeting. I was wearing jeans as I reackoned if they were good enough for the grandstand at the Ebor they were good enough for Ascot in September. No way would they let me in with jeans..(smart ones I may add).
The silver ring is that way sir , the jobsworth smirked.
But I’ve come all the way from Inverness and the rest of my clothes are in London.
The silver ring is that way sir.
I ended up watching the racing on the beeb in one of the tattiest pubs I’ve ever been in not far from the straight mile start.
Have a great day Mathew.
