Title: Problems @ the racecourse
Post by: Number 6 on July 23, 2015, 12:50:21 pm
Really sad to read that the racecourse are suffering from the antics of a (drunken) few spoiling the fun of the many at their Party in the Paddock events. It would seem that the demon drink is partly behind the violence but one wonders if it may have other causes that need investigation. With substance abuse and social media allowing organised groups to hijack events for their own ends the organisers and the police will have their work cut out preventing further occurrences. I wish them every success as some of the events I have been to in the past have been excellent.
