BROCKLESBY PARK, Lincolnshire. (1958) LH
Location: Nr A18 10m W of Grimsby (5m E of Exit 5, M180) view map
Area: Midlands
Meeting(s): Brocklesby - Saturday, 09 February 2008; South Wold - Saturday, 15 March 2008
Course Summary: Mainly flat course, uphill from 100 yards before 2nd (10/18th) to finish; long run between 7(15)th and 8(16)th; fences are all permanent and a work of art, well-built and irregularly spaced; rail on landing side of 2nd (10/16)th to deflect loose horses has been extended to give additional protection. Judge's stand is well back from line and paddock re-sited to far side of changing tents is much more convenient. Viewing good from inside of course and bank near paddock. Hard road access and well-sited car parks. Bookies very fair. A fair test and form usually reliable. The approach through a triumphal arch sets the stage for what is a proper old-fashioned Point-to-Point. Well worth a visit.
Top Riders: O. Greenall 6, Miss J. Coward 4, Mrs J. Dawson 4, R. Cope 3, J. Docker 3, N. Kent 3, C. Mulhall 3, M. Walford 3, B. Woodhouse 3
