Welcome to to this special issue of Both Barrels
We're counting down to a later-than-normal Opening Day on Saturday May 7.
By now you've hopefully finished your pre-season careful preparations (and don't forget Pegging Day April 10!). On the off chance you've been too busy, you'll find below some useful tips to help you get all set for Opening Day.
