Anyone know of any Cheltenham Preview nights coming up or when they start up in general?
From a personal point of view i'd be looking to go to one in Dublin, Louth, Monaghan (North East) area.

Would be interested in attending any previews in the Clare/Limerick area myself?? Nothing on at all last year in my locality..Went to one in Scariff Co.Clare 2 years ago, an excellent night with Timmy Murphy/David Casey amongst others on the panel that night..

Magic Trackside, cheers. You know what way tickets work for that? Turn up on the night? Book them through the hotel?
Sound Trackside, I will be keeping an eye on the local papers

Novelty has worn off at this stage. Last year I went to one (with a good panel) and was just itching to leave by the end. I think having access to video replays via ATR and RUK has taken away from much of them for me. Remember going to see them years ago really for just the replays.
I'll run another Talking Horses one online, if between you you can come up with a date and time. I think last time it was 4pm on the Sunday before?
Here is the transcript of the 2007 one. It makes interesting reading!
