    Completely different to horse racing in the UK in terms of the style of the venue and facilities. Some beautiful views too! Another great video 👍

      Yeah there are some similarities to the track from my city, but overall it has a completely different vibe, great food too!

    I like how they tried to skimp out on Shoko, thinking she wouldn't notice they replaced a takoyaki with a mayonnaise ball. 😂
    And you're right, the racetrack does remind me a lot of Ikspiari Mall in Maihama.

      Haha I think they are 5 piece sets but that Mayo ball was something else ah Ikspiari that’s the mall! Right yeah

    Tokyo Racetrack is amazing! Thanks for the tour. While my hometown track, Santa Anita Park, is beautiful, it's not as state-of-the-art as Tokyo Racetrack. I love them and Del Mar.

      Never been to the Santa Anita one, I’ll have to check that one out! Del Mar is amazing 🤩

      @@NomadicGaijin Santa Anita Park is beautiful place, but it also has a sad history tied to Japan. In 1942, during World War II, Santa Anita Park was turned into an Assembly Center for Japanese American U.S. citizens as a preparation for an internment Camp. The stables served as temporary residences during this time. These stables are now recognized as a historic site. Oh well, it is an interesting place.

      Tokyo Racecourse in Fuchu is the one we went to, and we went early February this year. Was crazy that we had snow the night before 😅

    I know the Kieba stuff is big. I have several older men who are really into it. I have never been to a race but this really makes me want to go to one.

    thanks for sharing this. I have been twice and agree its very different to back home (Australia). I didnt find the QR code system for betting on my visits so will keep an eye open for this next time. if you go to the information desk they will give you a card and betting guide to fill in tickets. I also discovered that to bet with cash you need to go to the yellow terminals. there will usually be a attendant with a map that will show you the closest cash terminals. 200 yen entry is amazing and the food is very reasonably priced.

      Yeah it can easily be fun to go with someone not so interested in the racing, as there is so much to do (and eat!)
