Self indulgent pish?? Your take on my post is wide of the intended mark.  We are spoiled now at Ashfield, Stevie wonder can see that. He can also see that the racing at Armadale is chronic. Ashfield obviously was very poor at one point.  No one really complained about that as everyone won here. The previous promotion started the ball rolling with the new track at huge expense in 2010. Massive risk was taken as the football club owned the ground at the time. What do you disagree with in my post? If I was the Edinburgh promotion I wouldn’t be sinking money into something that could be pulled from under my feet. Even when they had the bit of land at J3 earmarked the wanted to put a similar track in it to maintain home track advantage.  it is also very obvious when Edinburgh are doing well as you travel through to the west in great numbers. When you aren’t, it’s is the regular good guys that trap.  

It’s a good job you don’t want the other three, as you’re on 30.54 without them. With them, you’re probably 4 points over the limit. Are you happy to carry three two-pointers?

Not sure riding at Leicester is classed as abroad 

Was supposed to have been at Ipswich on the Thursday 

Doesn't count for abroad meetings. 

There isn't a home track advantage anymore but you are right in your 2nd point. The track WAS excellent, now you get the occasional good meeting. It's boring, in my opinion, more often than not. I doubt there will ever be a track reconstruction so it's what we have until the end. Does this mean there is no enjoyment from going to Armadale, no it doesn't. But perspective is needed. Is Glasgow incredible all the time? No. But the potential is there every time and its a superb track.
