Spring Carnival

So they’re farmers who spend all their money on the punt.

That doesn’t sound bogan at all.

They owned woodlands stud which was sold to darley oil money!

8 races, 2 wins, 3 places…finished only slightly in front.
sigh
I have to cut out the exotics.

Derby day - recommendations please regarding best locations for best race day experience.

Particularly if you don’t like racing.

If it’s as wet as they are forecasting it could be a bit ordinary out on the lawn.

Courtyard bar’s good if you’re in the members. Generally shorter beer queues, and a short walk onto the lawn if you want to watch live. Might be a bit wet there tomorrow also though.

The top deck of the new members stand has a deck and a DJ if you’re into that.

The lawn in the public area is pretty good. Having the big screens makes viewing a little easier, even on crowded days like tomorrow will be.
