I was out @ Menangle last night, they have to be disappointed with the turn out. If I wasn't picking up a couple of mates from the airport on the Sunday morning, I wouldn't be there on final day.

They have newer seats in front of the new stand (concourse I guess) that were available to the public to sit on. The flip up variety. Good because water doesn't settle on them, saves someone coming along and removing the water. Well that's fine (it isn't) the back two or three rows were filthy. The remainder were just dirty. You're telling me someone couldn't of passed the buck to someone else there to tidy them up ? My lucky hanky was offered to an old lady who wanted somewhere to sit. My lucky hunky is dead. If that same lady needed a bathroom, I hope a step up to a port a loo isn't too much of a hassle.

& speaking of toilets, had I not been trying to find one about the fourth race, I wouldn't of known they had bookies on course. Those bookies should be demanding places on the grass next week and next.

If they get a few more on Final Day, I don't think it's going to be comfortable at all. If it's warm, I might not leave the Horse and Jockey up the road.
