Well done Sandown what a stonking evening last night - traffic there and back was a bit of a downer but to be fair it delayed us by about 15 mins (much better on the way home)- the actual place was brilliant, stunning sunset with planes flying over and of course top music from Razorlight

Went to Sandown last night as a guest and had a great evening, helped by the fact that I was £200 up on the horses - enjoyed the music from Razorlight but particularly appreciated the facilities, food etc - I think I'll be doing it again.

What a cracking evening ! Just enjoyed Razorlight at Sandown with friends and family - the weather helped of course but totally impressed with the venue - really well organised, fast food area was excellent, not the usual tasteless greasy burgers ... really nice varied food at very reasonable prices and bars as well with alchoholic drinkls at normal prices - plenty of loos nearby and a granstand view of the track just a short stroll - a really well thought out and organised event - the negatives ??? well it finished too soon ! but I guess they've got to stop some time - well done Sandown for an perfect example of how to organise an event properly - I will definately be back!

Just a brief note to thank you and Stephen for a thoroughly enjoyable evening on 16th August. We were well looked after and the feed back from my clients who attended was that a good time was had by all. The food and the service in the restaurant was excellent. Overall I can happily say that we look forward to arranging another similar night in the near future. If I can be of any help to you or your team in the future please do not hesitate to contact me.

Just wanted to say thank you for all your assistance leading up to Raceday and on the day as well. It was a shame I wasn't there for the racing itself, but I hear it all ran really smoothly and everyone had a great day. It was great working with you both. I believe Liz has contacted you about next year already and I think will be coming back to you with more questions today (we've just had the wash-up meeting!)

I would like to thank you all for a great day out for myself, Optichrome & our clients. An excellent day! The organization, food & service was of the highest order. I thought the 'best turned out horse' & prize giving presentation was organised perfectly & all the people involved thoroughly enjoyed it.
Well done & thanks to all concerned

Ballymore Properties were very pleased with their day at Sandown. The director who hosted the Corporate hospitality facility said he and his guests really enjoyed the day. Ballymore Properties got a lot of exposure on the day and I know they were very satisfied with the support from the Sandown team.

In the third year of our Christmas Festival sponsorship I am pleased to say this was by far and away the most impressive of them all. The media coverage was excellent, much to the efforts of Clare Fortescu, Johnno Spence and the team at JSC. I was particularly impressed with the increased coverage we received in The Sun and The Mail, both of which papers excelled themselves in my opinion.

It seemed as though little was left to chance this year and as such there was no noticeable problems over the two days, the Kempton team worked tirelessly throughout and for weeks in advance to ensure the two day meeting was the resounding success it proved to be, Nicky and Helen proved to everyone they are a formidable team and aided and abetted by Lisa, Beverley, Barney et al they put on a show worthy of being finally classed as a festival.

From security to parking the standard of service throughout was excellent and as sponsors we were made to feel wanted and important, not an experience I get at every racecourse without naming names!

The sponsorship team of Kirsty, Steve and Kay showed again how good planning and time management can improve the overall service and enjoyment to sponsors, those involved in the running of racing and the paying public. My guests were well looked after whenever they ventured into the confines of the parade ring or Royal Box and trophy presentations all went without a hitch.

I must admit to being a little concerned with the quality of fair from Azure the caterers, my one and only previous experience had been back in April 2006 when the standard of food and service was woeful. I am pleased to admit that I was wrong; the standard of food on both days was exceptional, and the service was different class. They did you proud!

Finally I wish Paul Fisher in his new role all the best, am I am sure over the next few years we can all work together to only improve the Stan James Christmas Festival.

It was a special day as it was my son, Frederick’s, 21st birthday so I wanted to make it very special. It was fantastic, organizing the sponsorship could not have been easier and the restaurant experience just amazing with delicious food and an unprecedented view of all of the action on track.

Couple of days to recover, but I wanted to drop you a line to say a Huge Thanks for last Saturday. It went exactly to plan, the event was great, the weather brilliant and your organisation was ok, I mean terrific.
You know when I had a real job, I used to say ‘you don’t have to sell anything, just make it difficult for the customer to say no’ You certainly do that
Many thanks once again, and pass on a big Ta to the catering staff.

Just a note to thank you for a great day at Sandown on 9th March. Despite the racing sadly being abandoned we still have a fantastic day at the races, things were organised professionally and the service in our box was extremely attentive. Thank you to both of you and your staff for all your efforts to make it a special day for our guests. I hope that next year we'll be able to enjoy some live racing and the rain holds off!

Thank you very much for all your help in organising the day, and please can you pass on our thanks to Kelly and Andrea who looked after us really well. We really enjoyed the day, as did our guests and we have had a number of responses and people signing up for free trials as a direct result of the marketing there.

I believe that Sandown is a great home for our show and not just because of the venue but more importantly because of the team that we deal with on a day to day basis. I think that the great relationship that we enjoy makes the whole thing a lot easier and your flexibility as a venue is what differentiates you from others.

The lawyers at DWS were very impressed – the day ran smoothly and they had a very enjoyable time. Their only concern was losing money on the horses !

A reunion of 30 old school friends (with partners) most of whom you haven’t seen for almost 40 years, could be seen as an occasion fraught with many pitfalls! Choosing the right kind of event that would have universal appeal, give people the chance to mingle informally, but also provide a sense of ‘special occasion’ was a big ask.
The idea of a box at Sandown Park seemed a great solution and the unanimous feeling of all those involved was that it was an excellent choice. Many of us had never been racing before and approached the event with some apprehension, but again, any reservations proved groundless and everyone had a marvellous time.
The mysteries of betting and the whole horse racing scene were made simple with our own TV and betting window around the corner. The chance to wander at will, circulate and mix, and resurrect old friendships was perfect. Good food and drink and a sense of style and occasion that was appreciated by all.
As a group we cannot recommend a day at the races in your own box more highly. We all had a marvellous time!

Just to say what a great day Saturday was. It really could not have gone better. The room looked fab, as did the flowers, tables fantastic with a superb view over Sandown Park and even the weather was kind.
The presentation was well organised, was well attended and we had an attentive audience. Timings worked very well. I had a great time; I thought it was terrific fun.
I would do the day again, it was a superb venue and my thanks go to you and your staff for a brilliant day.

What a fantastic day out ! A very special day to celebrate a very special occasion.
We were considering going to another racecourse that we have visited many times before … but this was so much better in so many ways. It wasn’t so crowded, the box was right on the finishing line, the food was delicious, the service was excellent and we didn’t have to walk for anything.

The help and support that I received from the Event managers was exceptional - their flexibility and willingness to find a solution made the real difference to whether the show worked.
I would never hesitate in recommending Sandown as a venue ! Many of the exhibitors had not been at Sandown before and they simply loved it – the ease of build-up and breakdown and above all the quality of the visitors that’s unique to Sandown

The Mayor’s Office has held it’s most prestigious event, The Mayor’s Charity Ball, at Sandown Park Racecourse for a number of years now.
We relax in the knowledge that all our requests are dealt with professionally, courteously and promptly. Sandown brings and extra touch, somehow, making the guests feel that theirs is a most special event and one which Sandown is pleased and proud to host.
Elmbridge was recently voted as being the best borough in England to live in, and Sandown Park certainly contributed towards this accolade.

This was our first exhibition at Sandown Park and it was superb. Every detail was perfect, we have absolutely no criticism about anything. The people we worked with were terrific, no request was too small to deal with, no question too stupid to answer.
In fact I would go as far as to say it was the best venue we have ever used.
