Kingsley IBC Racecourse

25th November saw the first night of racing at Kingsley Indoor Bowls Club

horse race

Around 50 people had booked their seats for the first Race Night to be held at Kingsley Indoor Bowls Club.

Punters were treated to six main races followed by a loser's race with eight entrants drawn from all of the losing betting slips.

Five video screens were set up and shouts were heard encouraging the punters horses with cheers and groans as the races progressed. Some saw their horses fall at the first hurdle which almost led to tears, along with some jeers - people can be so sympathetic, can't they.

Altogether a fine and fun evening which, if all the positive comments received show, was enjoyed by everyone present.

A light hearted evening, all thanks to Ron Lawrie, the Kingsley IBC Social Committee and everyone else who helped make the evening a success.
