Racing on the 28th of May?

yes boys and girls, 50 hours to go before they let the hordes in
.I will be at table 17.
One bright spark on learning that smoking is strictly banned inside opted for a seat on the balcony-something I wouldn't wish on my favorite enemy.

Well Paul, The Jockey club, it seems messed up in their publicity, where they concentrate on what is their least popular seating- the Media hall with airline seating. In fact the Loge which is the most popular area is set up along normally accepted lines as seen in the photo from Randwick.

Another problem was that my original heading for this thread was changed from "Maha May Mela" roughly meaning Grand May Gathering, to a rather bland invite to gamble.

I will probably have another go in the Autumn, so see you then
Cheers
