    Hello,

    I know you are an international lot-if I found myself in Hamburg on Friday, which bar (if any) would show the Gold Cup?? 8)

    regards,

    No problem. Hamburg, like most German cities, has nowhere near the amount of bookmakers you would find in a British city, but it shouldn’t be a problem finding somewhere to watch the Gold Cup. The Wettenleip Sports Bar on Steindamm, near the main train station is a decent place to watch racing and other sports (huge screen showing wall to wall Bundesliga matches). They usually show British racing there as well. The only thing is that Steindamm is in a red light district, so it can be slightly intimidating, especially in the evenings. Personally, I prefer the Albers bookmakers on Schanzenstrasse (that’s more a British style bookmakers), but it is a bit way out of the city and can be a bit tricky to find. There is also a bookmakers near the racecourse at Horn.

    There are a couple of other bookmakers around. Where abouts in Hamburg will you be,maybe I can find something nearer to you.

    Many thanks Darren-it is my mate who has found himself stuck in Hmaburg. He was thinking of an Irish Bar or something like that?

    There is an Irish pub just off the Reeperbahn – if you’re going down the Reeperbahn heading out of Hamburg, it’s on the left down a little side street (but still visible from the Reeperbahn). Theres a British pub there as well, I think it’s called the Welcomme Inn (or something like that). I’m not sure if they would show it though to be honest.

    Don’t know of any bars but if he has internet access use this site. http://www.tvcatchup.com/ The name is deceiving, it isn’t catch up at all but instead live t.v. I used it when my t.v was playing up.
