Question about Ascot Racecourse?

Question

For a certain reason I need to know if there was racing on at Ascot last Sat 24 Nov? Also I would like to take a party of 4 at some point to the races there. I see from the website they have a beautiful restaurant but there are no prices except for large parties. Is this is the only restaurant? Someone told me they do a set lunch menu at £60 per person. Anyone know anything about this as I don't want to invite the people and then it is much more than I can afford. Incidentally it would not be on a day where there were major races, probably a Sat in winter. Thanks.

Answer 1

can you only go racing in the winter ? i would say to anyone who hasnt been to ascot dont go untill you have tried ROYAL ascot first.

royal ascot is absolutely fabulous and much easier these days to aquire since the new alterations get yourself 4 grandstand tickets ladies day is a MUST the atmosohere is second to non if there is four of you nominate a driver [or get a limoeveryone else does] and park in the centre of the course after the racing has finshed i promise you will still be enjoying yourself dont forget the sing along in the bandstand i didnt think cockneys could sing until i went to royal ascot as for the restraunts yes there are more alot more now but prices and access depends on what type of tickets you have but you have to book retraunts early as with tickets getting the train is also a great way to get to ascot if you want to eat and drink but please try ROYAL ascot before you try any other ascot meeting goodluck.

Answer 2

Yes there was racing at Ascot last weekend.

I cannot tell you the cost of the restaurant's at Ascot, but most racecourses have several restaurants to offer variety of choice - and price!  Your best bet is to call the racecourse once you have decided what day you would like to go on.

The remaining fixtures for the 2007/2008 jumps season are: Fri 21st & Sat 22nd December, Sat 19 January 2008, Sat 16 February and Fri 11th April.  After that they revert back to Flat racing until the end of October.
