Are facilities for racegoers and stable staff any better ten years on?

"Stands the church clock at ten to three?
And is there still nowhere to put your used teabag?"

With apologies to Rupert Brooke's poem The Old Vicarage, Grantchester.

Ten years on, Folkestone's closed, Tralee too, Chelmsford City and Ffos Las have opened, Hereford's closed then opened again, Warwick has ditched Flat racing and Newcastle's gone all-weather. Musselburgh hasn't, even though when I visited in 2005 they expected to be staging floodlit all-weather fixtures by 2007.
