"I'd like to hear from anyone who has been in the Royal Enclosure over the past two days. Have they, like me, found it impossible to go to the paddock, see the horses, place a bet - and then actually get to see the race live ? If I want to watch racing on TV, I can do this at home. The new level Four has a lot more seating than the old grandstand, but absolutely no standing room. The paddock area has not been graded sufficiently so that you can only just get a glimpse of the jockeys as they pass. It's a grewat new stand - provided you don't want to watch the races !"

Sounds like the only difference is that Gulfstream will have slots!

Does anybody understand that in the end, it's all about the horses and being able to see them up close and personal and LIVE???
