Please see below the message about car parking sent to Owners and Trainers, Jockeys, etc:
Due to the government’s recent increased terror alert rating across the country to severe and due to the increased crowd experienced on Ladies Day we have taken the extraordinary measure of amending our ingress operational plan on 4th July. This means that the usual Car Park C will be closed to vehicles between 11.30am and 2.15pm. Between these times all vehicles will park within Car Parks A and B with the top section closest to the turnstiles being reserved for Owners and Trainers, jockeys, Directors and blue badge holders. Please note all vehicles must enter via the main gates as there will be no access via the T junction area.
All jockeys can gain fast track entrance via gate 2 and all Owners, Trainers and hospitality guests will then gain fast track entrance via a separate queue with all other customers guided in to a main queue within Car Park C. This plan will eliminate vehicle movement past the main blue gates at the T junction and will also eliminate customers queuing past the blue gates where in the past they have encroached into the equine area.
Once racing commences normal ingress operations will resume.
