    Did anyone make it to the opening yesterday? How did it go? Was it well organized?


    Couldn't make it myself though I'm looking forward to the next meeting.

    Couldn't make it myself either, but the biggest gripe I'm hearing is about the queues at the bar. I believe the attendance was around 8000, but I'm open to correction. It can only have been a nightmare, it's bad enough at the dog meetings - the inside is just too small. However that 8000 was probably only an anomaly, I'm sure a good percentage just wanted to be at the Dundalk social highlight of the year. I'll be reserving judgement until I've had the chance to attend several meetings.

    The track as a whole looks great though, especially when the lights are on.

    I heard it was about 7000 at it. I too heard of the woeful bar experience on the day. I will reserve judgement until I get to a few meetings.
