                               TRADING UPDATE

Stanley Leisure plc will publish its interim results for the six months ended 26
October 2003 on Thursday 22 January 2004.   Ahead of its close period, the
Company is issuing the following trading update.

Trading has improved since the AGM on 10 September 2003 with good performances
in betting and provincial casinos.

The LBOs saw improvements in traditional betting products and, having achieved
the target of over 1,000 installed machines, a significant uplift from Fixed
Odds Betting Terminals.

The provincial casinos have continued to make good progress, as have the
mid-market London casinos, including the Palm Beach.

Whilst the win margin at Crockfords has improved in the last two months, this
has not been enough to recapture the losses to major players encountered in the
first few months of the financial year.

Given the run of results at Crockfords in the early part of the financial year,
the outcome for the Group as a whole in the first half has been satisfactory.
