It is just your average $27k per race gallops meet at Ararat tomorrow/Friday (apart from one $75k race)
and the greedy toffs of Ararat (there's an oxymoron for you) have 'packaged' the verandah to now cost $50 a plastic chair

May the committee and greedy b@$(@^#$ who came up with this ludicrous decision rue the day their eyeballs lit up with dollar signs

I might just turn up to see if anybody is silly enough to be ripped off by these greedy b@$(@^#$

Better still you can pay your admission (not included) and with 9 of your mates pay $150 for an umbrella - I kid you not. I hope the wind doesn't get up again tomorrow ;)

Watched a couple of races on racing.com and as one of the packaged areas overlooks the mounting yard so you can see it in their pre race coverage, I am happy to say that I saw NO ONE SITTING THERE
