Monday 3rd & Tuesday 4th August 09
We had two days of brilliant racing however it did feel more like a winter race meet than a summer one! The weather did not play fair for August. The ground staff did an amazing job to keep things going especially on the Tuesday after even more rain over night.
The jockeys came in from racing looking like they had been up at Haldon Hill in January!
It did create a good atmosphere and we are getting used to such a wet summer now that everyone kept smiling in true English fashion. The mud and rain made for some really gritty photos too so I was happy! My camera gear was not so keen but a good waterproof cover saved the day - again...
