Here's my feed back. We left the course around race 7 and went to the Tote instead.
The rooms above the Public Stand were closed to a couple of private functions. That's where we have gone for the past ten years or more.
Plus the roof top was closed, no one could give me a reason why.
You had to queue for at least 20 minutes to get a beer. Betting queues were getting pretty long as well.
We will be thinking again before going back after at least 10 years of tradition of coming to my house for breakfast before heading over. Maybe I am getting too old for this, I am on the wrong side of 55.
I suggested if we want to keep doing this, perhaps we look at a different race day, Wellington Cup Day is too crazy.
