Given the go ahead by the powers that be to start racing on the 4th April :thumbs

After many years of delays they finally get to make a few quid. Hope it works out for them, and since they scrapped the lower class crap, AW racing has improved again.

[presto]

what are the odd's that they actually start racing then :rolleyes:
isn't this something like the 4th proposed opening date?

The promoter and owner is not the greatest at PR! :



He warned race goers not to expect a "grand opening", saying it would be a triumph to get off "without a hitch".

'Soft opening'

He added: "I would like to thank the BHA for their encouragement, advice and support, which has been unflagging.

"One must not expect a 'grand opening'

At least we've been warned!

[Win2Win]

They have passed all the BHA tests now, so have the license to race.

Soft openings are very common for things like this though. Can't say I expected a grand opening on day one

[wb]

Actually looking forward to this. It's nice to see some new tracks opening. The AW at Dundalk was a good success, and it's great fun trying to be one of the first to spot the new trends and systems.

(Back Ger Lyons trained horses at Dundalk by the way :thumbs )

Since Dundalk opened:

Bets: 52
Winners: 10
SR: 19.23
Profit to SP: 16.83 points


It'll be a change from the other tracks too. Hope they do well.
