The Big One is one of the UK's most iconic coasters, despite this it's a weird ride. Its best element is it's first drop which is insane in the back row. After this there is a series of shallow airtime hills which offer nothing. There are decent positives in the valleys though! I enjoy this ride due to its length and pure fun factor!

What an underrated ride! Grand national is one of my favourite rides at the park, I've ridden it multiple times and always had a great time. To start the rides capacity isn't amazing, especially when it only runs one train on each side. However it can have good operations with 2 trains on each side. In fact the ride has good dispatches because they don't always check your restraint. The ride begins with a turn and chain lift before a turn. That first drop is wild, you get ejector airtime during its double down. The rest of the ride is very fun with floater airtime on the hills over its long duration. It can be rough but on a non-wheel seat it is bearable, it is important to remember the rides age and location. So overall this ride is very fun and a must ride each time I go to the park.

Gold rush is a great family roller coaster. It is butter smooth, and has a long layout with great theming. Cycle one is the more tame experience while cycle two offers more thrills with the backwards drop. The launches have a good punch especially for a family coaster, the ride has some small spots of weak floater airtime. One issue with the ride is its intensity, while it is a family coaster other family experiences offer more forces, however this doesn't take away from the ride. Overall gold rush acts as a stand out for Drayton manor and one of the UK's best family roller coasters.

This is honestly a great ride, second best at the park and not far of first. The layout is pretty short but has some awesome individual elements like the beyond vertical drop and dive drop, the latter gives loads of hang-time and is my favourite inversion. The rides restraints aren't the best and reduces hang-time but still aren't that bad. Overall this ride is really underrated and pretty smooth!
